Fun for the family

I read this recently with my 2nd grader. The cover on this looked like so much fun I figured I'd give it a try. I was afraid my 7 year old would be too too young for these stories but he LOVED them. We're also very excited to have found a new author that we really like -- David Lubar! "Are too, are not, R2-D2" a line from Lubar's story which is constantly recited at our house. We also really enjoyed the mini author bios at the end of each story.

Fantastic!

I bought this book as a back to school gift for my 11 year old niece and ended up reading it myself. The stories are so true-to-life that anyone at any age can identify with them. I can't wait to give it to my niece; I know she'll love it!
