"Children's chapter book, one of about 40 in a series, that will keep a child laughing and entertained. Enticing read because author includes funny fonts and illustrations and uses cheesy humor that works for a young kid. In Italy, these books even outsold Harry Potter, though it is written for a much younger audience."
