| My son needed this book for school, quick. There was no reason to buy a new one and thought the used book I bought was of great value. The shipping time was efficient, too! |

| The story is good but perhaps a bit boring for children under 7 or 8 years of age. The narrator of the audiobook does a decent job but is not as lively as other narrators I have heard and unfortunately grossly mispronounces the name of one of the three main characters (which, given the number of times she is mentioned, becomes galling). |

| Another spooky tale, but with more spook, this book is the story of a little boy who discovers the nefarious plan of a group of witches to finally rid the world of children once and for all. It might be a little much for younger children, but older ones will likely enjoy the creepy undertone.

| This is a family favorite. I think it is better for reading out than as a chapter book, because reading it out loud together lets the parents in on the fun.
Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle uses reverse psychology to change children's bad habits. Of course the situations are exaggerated, but they are funny and the children in the book are encouraged to be pleasant, responsive, responsible people. The parents are funny, too -- the dads are absorbed in work and lesiure pursuits, the moms hyperventilate and call one ... Read More: |

I have a lot of respect for a writer who can take holes, lizards and onions and create an incredible story. This book was amazing. It held my interest from the very first page. The characters were lovable and interesting (I particularly liked Zero), the plot was fast paced and engaging, the writing style was easy to read and follow. I felt like I was there with the boys digging all those holes. Once again, kudos to Louis Sacher for creating such a great thought provoking novel out of ... Read More: |

| I'll let you read other reviews to decide if you want to try the book. This review is specifically in reference to the audio book, which is read by actor Chad Lowe. My daughters and I listen to audio books daily, and we've listened to some truly gifted readers. The trouble with Hoot is that Chad Lowe reads with the skill that I expect from a non-professional. He brings absolutely nothing extra to the performance of the book. Very disappointing. |

| I always like to read a book before I see it's movie version. I picked this on up b/c I am a big fan of fantasy and I am growing to like young adult fiction as I pick good books to read to my kids. This is not what I expected from the movie preview, but it was well worth reading.
Jess Aaron does not fit into his rural northern Virginian life. He loves to draw, daydreams, and is baffled by his dysfunctional, down and out family. Then Leslie Burke and her "hippy" parents move into the abandoned farm next door. Leslie, ... Read More: |

| My 17 month old son loves this book. Today when I went to pick him up from day care, he was holding this book, sat down and started "reading" it. He shook his finger in the air and said "no no monkey bed." All the other kids in the class saw what he was doing and they too (other 17 month olds) started shaking their fingers in the air saying "no no" and tapping their heads (for "bumped his head"). My feeling is that any book that encourages a kid that young to "read" is a great book! It is a classic song made into an enjoyable ... Read More: |

| My 5- and 7-year-old boys LOVED this story! Lots of great mischief. I never knew Roald Dahl beyond "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory," and "James and the Giant Peach." "The Twits" is great for younger audiences. I can't wait to get more of his books. |
