Truly the dumbest book I've ever read. But my kid liked it, so I guess that's a win.

I wish I could rate it infinite stars, says my 8 yo. We enjoyed this book a lot and a lot.

This book are FANTASTIC; I would have LOVED them as a kid. They’re great for fans of Diary of a Wimpy Kid - especially if they have parents that dislike Greg Heffley’s dislikability. Additionally, reluctant readers will enjoy this series because all of the wonderful illustrations make them quick reads. The first one only took me about 15 minutes. My favorite part of the stories was the boys’ imaginations and how kids’ wildest dreams can come to life in these books. I can’t wait to read the next few books and tell of the kids at the library about them.

Fun as always, but I found the words and definitions at the bottom of the page distracting. I saw it as an educational opportunity for kids, but the definitions were so smart-alecky, it didn't appeal to me.

None of us were big fans of this. It was way too all over the place to follow.

Good story for kiddos. Didn’t like how often it used the words “stupid,” “crazy” and “dumb.” Luckily I was reading aloud so I just changed them.

This is really just nonsense. However, I see how a reluctant young reader may enjoy it, hence the rating.

Advice for those wanting to read this book,if characters who can't focus or finish their task until the last second annoy you this book may not be for you. I understand how it may appeal to a certain audience, and I predict that the tween book club I supervise will mostly have liked it, but I must say the book was not for me. I was annoyed by Terry's character. His creativeness wasn't written in an endearing way or even his lack of focus. However since I see where it can appeal to some, mostly reluctant readers or comic/humor fans I'll give it 3 stars.
