For more reviews, check out my blog: Craft-CycleA highly entertaining, educational, and fun book. This is such a fantastic series. Great for fans of the first book as well as the picture book series. Personally, I like the chapter books more than the picture books. It's just easier to really get to ...
The frame for this collection of short stories is rather predictable. The individual tales themselves are better, though the first Uncle Montague book was better. I do wonder why all the short stories and the frame have male central characters. The stories channel Poe, James, and LeFanu. The bo...

We liked the story, too, but in spots it was a little repetitive, and that did get a little annoying at times.My nephew did ask if the T-Rexes were going to become nice in this story. My niece responded, "They're T-Rexes. So, no." ...
November 18, 2010We read it last night when we got it home. Such fun! I love the class full of kids who may seem like misfits, but each of whom has very desirable skills which they use together to thwart the evil teacher.
