An appealing mix of magic and silliness." -BOOKLIST will howl at the atrocious puns and repeat them at the earliest opportunity." -SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL"Wordplay is at the heart of this funny, surreal adventure in which even the title is a pun. There is an emphasis on problem-solving and self-reliance as well. The language concepts are deftly explained and the clever, wordplay-filled dialogue provides numerous examples. "About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.Praise for LOONIVERSE #2: MELTDOWN MADNESS"Liberally endowed with jokes, twists and comical line drawings, the tale scrambles its way energetically to a chocolaty resolution." -KIRKUS REVIEWSPraise for LOONIVERSE #1: STRANGER THINGS"This is a silly book that will pull kids in with the goofy plot and the fun black-and-white illustrations." -SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNALPraise for PUNISHED!"This lighthearted fantasy would be an excellent classroom read-aloud. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. These books should be considered for larger libraries wanting to enhance their easy-reader collections.-Elizabeth Swistock, Orange County Public Library, VAα(c) Copyright 2013. The truly strange thing about this book is that it references Albert Camus's The Stranger, an odd choice for this audience. Are these strange happenings trying to send Ed a message? This is a silly book that will pull kids in with the goofy plot and the fun black-and-white illustrations.
However, he has no idea just what is in store for him when he finds a coin that says "strange, stranger." Soon everything is erupting into chaos, from his sister's food train turning into an actual moving train at the dinner table to a friend being able to turn his head completely around. Ed feels that he does not have any interesting traits or talents he is simply an extremely normal boy. Stranger Things has a bit more text and fewer illustrations. A bonus page gives instructions for making a compass, leading to a great interactive experience. This is a fun easy reader book with great full-color cartoons, brief text in large print, and likable characters. Disappointed at first that it's only to another part of their town, he soon realizes that adventures can happen anywhere-even in his own backyard.
One day they take him on an adventure of his own.
Gr 1-3-Boris is an energetic character who longs for adventure, just like those his parents had before they turned their old bus into a house.
