Okay, I tried to find words for this book, but reading it as a young kid it didn't grip me, as a preteen and teenager it had me laughing and cackling as I held a flashlight under a thick blanket. It's the kind of book you need to be teenage to adult to really get the full whimsy of. It's somewhere between a Spy Kids dog version and one of those cheesy movies you watch to laugh at more than anything. In no way is this book bad, but even the summary ought to make you snicker.

It's a short read full of laughter. I recommend it as a once-read though, not a ton of reread value, but that might just be me. ( )
