Jiggy is given a pen - one of those with a scantily-clad female in it who loses her clothes when the pen is tipped. Trouble is, when Jiggy uses the pen, his clothes disappear too - but being Jiggy, he doesn't put two and two together until he has suffered a number of very nude, public and embarassing episodes.
I learnt that i really injoy humourous books and that i really like Michael Lawrence books. This book is about a boy called jiggy mcCue who has two friends called Pete and Angie.Jiggy got this new pen and whenever wrote with the pen all his clothes vanished.When Jiggy was trying to get rid of the pen he though it in the bin.The next day the pen was under his pillow... I liked this book because it made me laugh so muchand i kept wanting to read it over and over again.
I don't even know what reminded me of this book last night, but something enticed me to read it again.
It brought back memories of me reading the series back in 2005-2009ish (I read this one a few times in 2006 as it's short and easy to ready).
It was actually hilarious, a joke or some witticism on at least every page. Some of the humour was quite adult, to be honest, but Jiggy McCue books were never 100% child friendly, were they?
I only give it a 3 star rating, as I'm a grown adult now, so although the story stirred up old memories and still made me giggle, maybe it's not something I should mark as 'amazing'. It was quite predictable too (even if I have read it so many times almost 18 years ago). And how come Angie didn't strip when using the pen? Or was it that only the 'owner' of the pen succumbs to its powers?
I probably wouldn't go looking for the other books in the series, I just wanted a throwback on this one and wasn't even planning to read it all, just wanted to browse.
I liked this book because it made me laugh and i also liked the story line because it was really good. This book is about a boy who has this pen that makes himgo naked in puplic. It keeps happening to him over and over again.
