5.0

Five star children's book that just as effectively teaches kids as it does adults. This is technically a reread as I read this in elementary school for class, but this was (obviously) a totally different reading experience. 

Cannot go wrong with puns and riddles and word play that are all designed to make you think yourself into a slightly better person, just like Milo.
