Customer Rating:      Summary: Great book Comment: My students have been reading this book and giving it great reviews. It's a faster read than most of our Reading Olympics books, but they really seem to enjoy it.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Teacher's Grade: A- Comment: I love reading this book aloud to my 2nd grade students. There is abundant humor, a lot of action, and excellent dialogue. The kids especially love the disgusting giant with flatulence issues, and the fire-breathing dragon.
This is an excellent springboard into reading for reluctant but capable boy readers.
Customer Rating:      Summary: You would think it was the authors fifth not first...... Comment: You knew this was the authors first book, but you felt far into the story while reading....which made it good...I would like to read more books by this author.
Customer Rating:      Summary: The start of an empire Comment: Finally Lane Smithh and Jim Szcieska have found their niche. These (now eleven?) stories are about to become a series on either Nickelodeon or Cartoon Network. And this is the book that started it all. Alas.
The good thing is that through the eyes of young boys the era of the Middle Ages is debunked from myth - it was smelly, dirty, unhealthy, and those suits of armor made from aluminium today weighed a lot more in those days.
But the story reads like it has a formula already: cliffhanger at the end of Chapter 1 (where do the boys wind up?), cliffhanger at the end of Chapter 2 (the boys are about to be attacked), cliffhanger at the end of Chapter 3 (the Book that got them there is in peril/unattainable/out of reach), happy resolution at the end of the book.
It's the young person's version of Robert Ludlum. Pity. I bought the first four books on the strength of other books by this dynamic duo, but I will not be buying the rest. I don't buy Robert Ludlum because I don't buy formula at any level.
Life is way more dynamic than that.
Customer Rating:      Summary: time warp series Comment: the whole series is very good. should be in every library and school
