From the author of "Tangerine" and "Crusader" comes this bitterly funny satire about the state of modern education and standardized testing.

I just read this on Monday and I already can't wait to read more! This is going to be quite interesting!

This story seems interesting. I can't wait for this week's entire readings. Hoping for more fun. - Nimmy

It sounds interesting and funny, but I don't really like the ideas of demons and devils. The family characters are truly weird! Kate (I'm guessing 12-13) wants to fly in Peter Pan and her grandparents are weird. It's funny because my family is a bit like theirs too. My aunt (who is 9) is my grandpa's daughter, and my dad's step sister (even weirder)!

I do not care for this story at all!

Okay, George's parents are really, really weird, im not even joking, they like have gone off the deep end. And im not really interested in stuff to do with devils/demons. I will read it for the rest of the week, but im not going to take it out.

Yo'u're right katharine, it's ok, but im not interested in demons / devils and im not going to take it out. (George's parents totally dived into the deep end!)

Is ur name really Pooh? like winnie the pooh? i kinda doubt it, but if it is, then it is very original, and i dont mean to insult u or anything, Pooh is a very ok nickname/name

I hope not, he must of got made fun of alot at school. Sorry pooh, if that is your real name ; )

hey katherine,
im just curious...didd the book get any better as you got deeper into it like Jodi said?

The book is ok, but there have been better.

I read this book last fall and i loved it. I'm totally phyced about reading it again. in my opinnion Edward Bloor is a great author, i loved Tangerine which his first book. This book starts off very weird but gets alot bettr, so all of you who think it's really weird give it a few more days.

can u give me a brief summary for this book?? i'd appreciate it! ty ty!!

Hey if you're reading this and want to find out for yourself they main plot line don't read this.

Reader:
It's pretty much about that Kate and George end ukp going to the school and things are miserable. some weird things are oncovered about the family that runs the school and the library, kates family and these deomons that live in books. It isn't really about demons that much though. Kate is ahving a horrible time there and George begins to hate it. They do tests all day and if you don't meet expectations they make you drink protein drinks and have brain simulitants. THis isn't a very good description, sorry.

Anyway this segment doesn't really do a very good showing the reader what the book is about.

thanks jodi,i was having trouble finding a good summary online. your sum helps alot. any other books i should check out?


thanks a bunch!

This book is so cool! I loved Tangerine and didn't know that Edward Bloor had more books. I always like weird books like his.

This book is really stupid so far and the parents/grandparents are absolute morons!!

No Thank You!!

I think the grand parents sound sooooooooooo cool. I just love them.

I think the grand parents sound sooooooooooo cool. I just love them.

Who wouldn't want Grandparents who clogged and wore funky clothes. Life is a lot more interesting when you're surrounded by people who know how to have fun!

Their grandparents are prople who wants to have fun. They are awesome but their family tree is a bit too wierd. Oh well I am going to give it a try.
-Nimmy
