Review
A good addition to the series. Fans and new readers will enjoy the humor well done in layers so whether a child or parent reading out loud there is humor for all. It is hard not to laugh while reading, while feeling sympathy at times for both Timmy and his mother - and teacher, and piano teacher, and all others who deal with Timmy who has a wonderful imagination. The illustrations are simple yet add so much to the humor, in case your imagination needs a little something extra. Good for reluctant readers and all others.
Overall Book Score: very good
