Reviews

"True to Katz’s style, the plot is funny, surprising, and a little bit silly. Checkboxes and interactive prompts at the end of each chapter inform readers of their progress and encourage them to keep going. Young readers will enjoy the antics in this chapter book, and teachers will enjoy reading it aloud." - School Library Journal (starred review)

“Interspersed with scenes of frazzled students, leering pets, and action highlights on every page of well-leaded narrative, the caper races along to a final, thrilling surprise!” - Booklist
