"Love Henry Winkler and Lin Oliver. Laugh out loud funny. I would have given it 5 stars but I wasn't as compulsive about reading or finishing as I have been with other favorites. My kids are really enjoying the audio!"
— Natalie (4 out of 5 stars)
“Billy finds himself in an ethical quandary, which he resolves on his own because his innate decency leads him to the right solution.”
— Booklist“Abounds with zany humor, from gross dinner-table conversation about flossing with Billy’s earnestly clueless stepdad, to nonstop banter between Billy and the Hoove, to pleasingly predictable disasters from mind-reading malfunctions…Winkler and Oliver once again deliver an appealing mix of over-the-top slapstick humor and big-hearted, innocent sweetness.”
— Children’s Literature“A go-down-easy book that provides both lightweight character building and several comical turns.”
— Kirkus ReviewsFantastical, suspend-your-disbelief, rollicking and very funny.
