Customer Reviews

Freakin' hysterical!!

This is one of the funniest books I've ever read with my 8-year-old son. It is completely different from Captain Underpants which I find to be gross and vulgar. On the contrary -- this book has an innocence that is almost touching. The boys are each other's defender, supporter, and comic foil. They are respectful of their parent, but are sometimes just too full of fun to keep it all under control. THEN the fireworks start! Uncontrollably funny antics, fresh perspective on the wonders of childhood, and occasionally wise sayings. The only drawback to this book is that it makes me wish my son had a brother to play with...

My Kids LOVE this book!

My 5 and 6 year old sons love this book. It really makes them laugh. Of course, this makes me laugh and we all end up having a great time reading together. And to me, that is the whole point, get them to enjoy reading. Not to mention the lesson the book teaches that it up to YOU to make life interesting and fun. Wow, all of this in one book! I want more form the Riot Brothers.

Fun and Funny for All

A fun read for kids grades 4, 5, 6, 7 & even older. The humor is just right for these kids. Read it and see. Maybe you, too, could try making your sibbling "snarf" or get an adult to wipe his/her chin repeatedly. As a teacher, I highly recommend this book for reluctant readers. They will read energetically and excitedly. My 7th grade students want more Riot Brothers. Enjoy!

Snarf Attack, Underfoodle and the Secret of Life

This book is really funny. The brothers play a game called "Snarf Attack". In the game you have to make your opponent laugh so hard that milk comes out of their nose. This is a great book for kids who like playing jokes on each other. This book is not appropriate for adults or kids under seven.

First rate

Mary Amato masters three different genres in one book: fantasy, philosophy and family! This work captures the humor, imagination and even love that two brothers are capable of, all in words and a style that are perfect match for the pre-teen set. And Amato does it without resorting to the kind of bathroom humor that some other books for this age group use. The only problem will be that your children might not be able to put it down at bedtime.
