PICKY SON LOVES IT

My son is 9 and rather picky on what he reads. He is a big fan of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid books, in one of the reviews a parent was saying it had a similar writing style. So I took a chance and bought it, that parent was right on! My son LOVES this book, the way it's written and I have been told several times how funny it is and how up to date it is. He loved that the Grandma was watching CSI! Also, I liked that is is a full blown chapter book, no comics or anything and the words are perfect for a 3rd or 4th grade fun read. Highly Recommend this author!


Hilarious Book!

This is a hilarious story! I literally laughed out loud. I'm reading it to my fourth graders, and even though they don't understand all of the stock market lingo, they too are really enjoying the story. I'm hoping Mr. Paulsen writes a follow-up. I love this book!

Cool!

the end is the best part!!!!!!! 2nd best book I've ever read.#1 is dairy of a whimpy kid series. This book looks boring to us kids if you just read the name of the chapters,but read them and they are funny. The chapters look like the teach you and make you learn but they really have nothing to do with the names. They do really astonishing things with the money he earns. IN OTHER WORDS, READ THIS BOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




READ THIS REVEIW TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


RATE IT GOOD TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One day I was 12 years old and broke. Then Grandma gave me Grandpa's old riding lawnmower. I set out to mow some lawns. More people wanted me to mow their lawns. And more and more. . . . One client was Arnold the stockbroker, who offered to teach me about "the beauty of capitalism. Supply and Demand. Diversify labor. Distribute the wealth." "Wealth?" I said. "It's groovy, man," said Arnold.

If I'd known what was coming, I might have climbed on my mower and putted all the way home to hide in my room. But the lawn business grew and grew. So did my profits, which Arnold invested in many things. And one of them was Joey Pow the prizefighter. That's when my 12th summer got really interesting.
