The Pepins and Their Problems Audiobook

" After just a few tracks, I was quite ready to pop the CD out and call it quits. Fortunately I hung on a bit longer, because it did get funny. (The beginning was simply tedious.) The Pepins are a rather unintelligent family from (apparently) a rather unintelligent town, so this does make for some entertaining misunderstandings. My particular favorite (and the dialogue between mother and daughter of the Pepin family here is hilarious) is a conversation about how to tell one's Very Fine Neighbor that the object of his affections is, in fact, a barber pole. That chapter made it all worthwhile. "

" The silly problems of the Pepins are solved by the readers/listeners who send messages that the author receives via her antennae. Sometimes annoying, sometimes funny, this was not my favorite Horvath book. Skip this one and read My One Hundred Adventures! "

" The silliest Horvath book I've read yet "

" Funny, very funny, a lower reading level then I'm currently at, but quite well-written, and CANADIAN, too! "

" Good book. Author goes on some tangents. Aimed more for younger children 7-10. :) Good book. "

" I started to read this book and found it was really meant for children and didn't hold my interest. "

" Silly and funny. Suggest it to your favorite young friend who is beyond first chapter books, but still likes some pictures and a story to kind of ease you into for serious chapter books. "

" Great read for the whole family. It is a great read alike for families who like things like Mrs. Piggle Wiggle or Estes books. Ages 4+ "

" Not my cup of tea. Very similar to the Amelia Bedelia stories in that the characters don't have any common sense. I know kids loves those kinds of books so for young ones who are reading above the level of Amelia Bedelia, this would be a great chapter book. "

" I liked this book. The style is extremely refreshing, and the combination of silly situations and adult conversations was a great mix. My 10 year old enjoyed the book a great deal, and for my 6 year old, the book was a bit out of reach. I'd probably say 7-8 year olds and up are a great audience. "

" I got a few books for christmas and this was one of them. "

" This was not a great book. I would definetly have enjoyed it more a few years ago, but it was good to read early in the morning before school, or late at night after school and practice (in other words, whan i was tired). It had an air of Lemoney Snicket and N.E. Bode about it wich made it fun. "

" I read this when I was about 9, but I thought it was good. "

" IT WAS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "

" Very goofy! "

" This is a wacky, silly, crazy, funny, frustrating, hilarious, one-of-a-kind, following an old-time formula book. (It's kind of like a modern version of the wise people of Chelm stories from the Jewish folktale tradition.) "

" Very silly. I did this for my Mother-Daughter Book Club and there were definitely mixed-feelings about it. Some of the moms hated it and that, in turn, made their daughters hate it. Other kids loved the silliness. I think this would be good for the parents looking for a bedtime read-aloud. "

" Hysterically funny book where the author interacts with her reading audience about the silly Pepin family, their ridiculous problems and how they solve them. "

" Silly and funny, but not hilarious. "

" its a good type of silly "

" ugh truly bad...I couldn't get past chapter two. Just nonsense and not in the good way that I tend to like nonsense. I finally closed the book and declared the characters little idiots...too painful to read further. "
