We read the book in our house and the girls gagged and winced at the grossness. They tolerated one reading and humored dad for a second reading. Overall the book just sat there, UNTIL my twin, 6-years-old nephews came. The book was read again and again with rolling laughter and many "look at this, isn't it GROSS" sharings. This book is written for BOYS! When you combine a fungus experiment with a really rainy spring break you get a prize winning fungus that takes over the school. It is slimy, it is gross, and it is what boys like to read about! Great book to add to a library!I am the Library Media Specialist at Parkwood! This blog is to track my reading for both children and young adult literature so my young readers will have a few ideas of books to check out from the library!
