Move over, Captain Underpants, a couple of new pranksters are in town. Narrated by fifth-grader Wilbur and featuring his third-grade brother, Orville, this hilarious story follows the antics of two boys with overactive imaginations and a comfortable sibling relationship. The action is divided into three "books," with six chapters each. In the first, the brothers are determined to catch a crook. They make a windfall by giving lessons in being annoying to their classmates, are reprimanded by the principal (who is also their mother), and still manage to foil a bank robber on the way home from school. Next, while searching for treasure, they find a mysterious box in the closet. After they finally open it, they discover that the contents, show more although not worth money, are still valuable. The final installment has the duo building a catapult designed to overthrow a king and using it instead to defeat a bully. show less
Hilarious, naughty brothers. Our whole family was snickering and giggling throughout the reading of this book. We finished it in two readings.
When the Riot Brothers Wilbur and Orville get an idea, you know trouble is not far behind. Snarf Attack, Underfoodle, and the Secret to Life: The Riot Brothers Tell All is a funny story that is perfect for an early reader. Each chapter is like a short story, and the adventures these brothers get into is perfect for the interest of troublesome boys and girls alike. I recommend this book to parents of a young grade school aged child who is interested in reading.
Silly and troublesome brothers always find a way to make their day eventful. Very humorous for 1-3rd graders that like pictures to break up the text.
Fourth grade boys who just love this book, but I can not recommend it to anyone older than that. The author does a good job with portraying believable behavior of boys of this age.
