Fizzopolis: The Trouble with Fuzzwonker Fizz by Patrick Carman My rating: 4 of 5 stars The world Patrick Carman created for this series is really cute.

The Chocolate Fudge Mystery
The Chocolate Fudge Mystery by David A. Adler My rating: 2 of 5 stars Totally reading this series out of order, but here we go. This is another one of those books that is great for its target audience, but doesn't really work for those older.

The League of Unexceptional Children
The League of Unexceptional Children by Gitty Daneshvari My rating: 3 of 5 stars I have to say, I was with the kids for a while on this one, wondering if someone was just messing with them.

Never Glue Your Friends to Chairs
Never Glue Your Friends to Chairs by Katherine Applegate My rating: 2 of 5 stars I really feel for Roscoe. Things may get out of control, but everything he does it with the best of intentions. He is a cute little character that just wanted to make his teacher happy and prevent her from getting … Continue reading Never Glue Your Friends to Chairs
Half-Moon Investigations
Half-Moon Investigations by Eoin Colfer My rating: 3 of 5 stars Eoin Colfer created some crazy characters for this book. They kept taking me by surprise, which was nice. I was trying to figure out who the culprit was, but at the same time, I knew that nothing was really as it seemed. I've never … Continue reading Half-Moon Investigations
