Customer Reviews

Still one of the funniest books

I just re-read this after a few years, and laughed out loud, again! Dirk Zimmer's drawings are perfect for this hilarious story. Howie, Willy, Farmer Johnson.... each has such a distinct personality. A scary/funny book that is a delight for adults as well as kids.

The curse of the squirrel

This is one of the greatest books that I have ever read. I feel that the play along tape is essential to really enjoying this book. The old timing blue grass music, alongside the great voice of the narrator, turns this book into an adventure that completely takes over the senses. Plus you get to hear the voices of the characters, and all of the really great sound effects. I can not go on enough about how great this story is. It is completely original and very creative. I am sure that while you are reading and listening; this book will stir up your imagination into a fun filled frenzy. This is an absolutely wonderful book, and I recomend it to anyone and everyone.
