Customer Reviews

Fantastic

My daughter has read the entire series -- its a great series. My 9 year old daughter says: "This author is amazing in every single way! Florence, the main character, is unbelievably funny. " Enjoy.

New perpspective

My pre-teen daughter likes this type of writing and thinking. It seems to suite her way of thinking. I just want the children to read as much as possible.

Another dazzling morsel from everybody's favorites - Kate & Sarah

Stop the presses ! -- Make a bee-line for the bookstore ! This couldn't be a more satisfying & engaging read. This tome's perfect for kids of all ages. It literally leaves you buzzing. Just like with their earlier loopy & festive chart-toppers (Regarding the... Fountain, Sink, Trees and Bath), Kate and Sarah have produced a page-turner. On this go-round, the fabulously imaginitive sisters use goofy and surprising puns to get us to laugh along as characters involve themselves with 'tween dating not to mention nefarious pollen carriers and standardized tests that you wish you could swat-t-t away. I couldn't get enough of the unpredictable illustrations, the galloping storytelling and the positive values woven throughout. Smart booksellers should stock-up. These Klise bon-bons, chock full of insights and cool-as-can-be images, are instant-classics - especially rewarding for middle schoolers and Moms & Dads who want an engaging and addictive snuggle-before-bed mystery/adventure. If you get stung by the fun of this one and wish it were longer(and I know you will !), bee sure not to bumble the opportunity to catch their earlier "Regarding..." books before they fly off the bookstore shelves !
