My 9yo was hooked
submitted by A2Doug2 on July 11, 2014, 4:24pm
My 9-year-old son read this book very quickly. He was skeptical at first, but once he was hooked, we couldn't pry the book out of his hands.
In his opinion, the best part of the book is when Nate Fludd met the "third main character," Greasle. He would have given five stars, but he thought the book was "too cheery."
