Really Funny!

This book was really good because it was funny. I liked that it was short and I could read it in one sitting. My favorite part was when he found out that Irwin R Fletcher made the dart gun. I would recommend this book for anyone who has a good sense of humor, boys especially, grades 3-5 mostly.
