My Thoughts
I read this book so many times when I was a kid, so it was great revisiting it. It's crazy, weird, wacky, and full of many laugh-out-loud moments. I thought I'd remember it better than I did because I about wore out my copy of it, but I guess it has been quite a few years. There were a few fairly twisted stories that I had no recollection of. Although, I recently reread the second book in this series and remembered that one a lot better than this one even though I didn't read it nearly as much. Oh well, I guess that's one of the mysteries of life, lol. But, anyway, this book as a whole, was just pure fun and a great way to spend an afternoon. I loved it.
Four Stars
I still own a box full of my favorite childhood books. I don't reread them very often, but when I do it's always a fun walk down memory lane.
ReplyDeleteIt's so much fun visiting childhood favorites. They bring back so many great memories. :)
