Product Details

Praise

Some humor writers have a rule of thumb: always make the jokes funnier than they need to be… the jokes work, and most of the time, they work twice as well as necessary.
—Kirkus Reviews

Benjamin “Bug” Blonsky, an impulsive seven-year-old who “spend[s] a lot of time in the quiet chair thinking about my choices,” stars in this mischief-stuffed early reader…kids will know that Redmond is on their side.
—Publishers Weekly

The black and white cartoonish art lends plenty of visual humor: the titles of the books on Bug’s teacher’s desk include “The Joyless Classroom,” and Bug’s waste-of-math-time pigs make several appearances. Plentiful illustrations, stealthy repetition, and the appeal of the class clown make this a quick pick for the early reader set.
—Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books

Large font combined with detailed cartoon-style illustrations on every page will keep newer chapter book readers confident and engaged. The full-color artwork capitalizes on and exaggerates the jokes in the text to make them extra silly. Using slapstick humor in both its words and art, this early chapter book will appeal to new readers who enjoy a little trouble and irreverence in their stories.
—School Library Journal

Bug’s antics are believable and will ring true, making this a good choice for fans of Dav Pilkey’s Captain Underpants series.
