To be honest, this book didn't really ring any bells for me. I didn't respond to the stylist choice of superimposing chartoon characters on top of real photographs, and I didn't really find the storyline to be highly entertaining, even though it's certainly charming enough.

However, I'm not the target audience, and I decided to get a second opinion. I asked my son to read the book and then discuss it with me.

He really enjoyed it! He absolutely loved the cartoons in real photographs, and he decided the plot was interesting. He thought the ending of the book was hilarious.

So, I'm giving the book high marks, because it reaches its intended audience. Kids will love it!
