I really don't think the publishers know what they were doing. I mean, for crying out loud, they spelled the almost main character's name wrong! However, this book would probably be good for some teacher to read aloud because it teaches about oxymorons, anagrams, palindromes, and things of that nature. I wouldn't tell anyone to read this in spare time if they want to read a book. I don't know anyone who enjoys reading 96 pages of non-detailed, and forgive me for this last comment, junk. ( )

This book does exactly what it sets out to do: provide lots of laughs and tell a fun tale. It also provides some great English grammar lessons without ever seeming didactic. ( )

Logan and his friend Benedict are playing tag in the library. Logan gets caught when he runs into a mysterious man. When Logan doesn't apologize sincerely, the mysterious gentleman punishes him by causing him to speak in puns. Only finding seven examples each of oxymorons, anagrams and palindromes within the time limits will return Logan to normal. ( )

While I did not give this book the highest rating, I still find this to be a great read for elementary students. Need to introduce word play (puns, anagrams, palindromes, or oxymorons) to your students?!? This is a fun, quick read that will soon have your kids making their own punny jokes! ( )

Pretty funny book that uses good understandable language
