Floors Audiobook

" Almost 5 stars but starts off a but slow... Then its one part jeremy fink, one part Willy Wonka... The ending in particular was very wonka... Almost beyond homage, and a little obvious to this Wonkavite, however for part 1 of a series, this had a good ending which was refreshing. "

" Really good. If I could, i would rate it 300 stars out of negative 300. "

" A great adventure/ mystery story for middle grade readers. Whimsy and humour, suspense and ducks all rolled together in one book. "

" Highly reminiscent of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Floors is a fun romp within a wacky hotel. Carman does a lovely job of portraying male relationships between Leo and his dad, Leo and his mentor, Merganzer and Leo and his best friend, Remi. Highly imaginative, if not original, Floors does ply into this childhood fantasy of secret rooms with incredible themes come to life. The action moves along briskly and with lots of kid humor where all's well that ends well. "

" read aloud to kids, we all enjoyed it! fun adventure story "

" This was quite entertaining. Leo has some great adventures. I would love to visit and stay in the Whippet Hotel. I'm glad my daughter recommended it to me. "

" Really enjoyed this book!! A fun read from start to finish made me wish I could go back and read it as a 10 or 11 year old so I could really believe in all the fun and fantasy the book contains!!(less) "

" 10-year old Leo is the son of the maintenance man of a most unusual hotel filled with mystery floors. This was a very fun read, would make a good read aloud, and allows all kinds of wonderful pictures to form in your mind. Listened to the CD and becoming a great fan of Jesse Bernstein as a reader. "

" I had a hard time getting through this, while the concept was great, I just did not feel the tug of the story.... :( "

" A magical story about a wonderful hotel and the mystery that it brings. "

" Really liked it. Reminded me a lot of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. "

" i read this book in one day. i like the oddities in the hotel and the mystery. it also felt like i was in the hotel. "

" clever story- great book- my kids loved it! "

" I liked it but while I was reading it, the whole plot seemed exactly like the one in charlie and the chocolate factory. The only change was the main character ended up with a hotel in the end instead of a chocolate factory. "

" Read out loud with Simon January - March 11. He really enjoyed. Very imaginative, creating great visual pictures in your mind! "

" Bit of a mystery and not the sort of hotel for everyone! "

" An amazing book with great ideas and amazing out of the world floors. I wish I lived at the Whippet Hotel. "

" A 'modern' Willy Wonka story but set in a hotel...theming is even the same! Some of my students have enjoyed it, although I thought it was odd and a rip-off. "

" Charlie had his chocolate factory. Stanley Yelnats had his holes. Leo has the wacky, amazing Whippet Hotel. "

" This is a great read for people who loved Roald Dahl's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. It is a similar story line with a mystery component. Gwen Miller, youth services librarian. "

" It was a quick, fun, read. "

" i loved it when Jane Yancey attacked miss parks because of what Leo and Remi told her.And i loved the flying animal room it seems so fun espacialy the flying goat he was kind of cool.In the end Merginizer D. Wippet came back!And now the Wippet Hotel is Leo's. What a happy ending. "
