The Great Brain by Mercer Mayer, John D. Fitzgerald
4.0
(This review was originally posted in Habitica’s Book Lust guild!)
Finished John D. Fitzgerald’s The Great Brain! It was fun to read, just because of all the adventure- and watching Tom swindle the kids of the town out of their money. It was a school read, but I’m not very sure why it was picked. The curriculum is about the 20th century, but I don’t think it is an icon of the time. Tom isn’t exactly a moral icon (neither the opposite, he just wants to get a buck however he can). Or maybe they just wanted to tell us you can get money out of anything…? I don’t know, but I definitely liked this book. 7/10
