EXCERPT
When Hector and his father arrived at the park, it looked like a bomb had dropped. There were feathers scattered around the duck pond, there were chairs and tables overturned at the café, there were ice cream cones scattered across the ground near the ice cream truck, there were kids crying by the swings, there were squirrels crying in the trees … It was a mess and no mistake.
A police van was parked by the gate and a bunch of policemen were standing around. One of them was having his hand bandaged. Hector and his father approached them.
“Excuse me, officer,” said Mr Dumble. “You haven't seen a dog, about so high, brown, with sticky-uppy ears, have you?”
“Are you kidding?” said one of the police officers. “That's the canine who caused this salmagundi of discombobulation,”
“Pardon?” said Mr Dumble.
“The canis domesticus who instigated this cornucopia of pandemonium.”
“Eh?” said Mr Dumble.
The police chief came over. “Don't mind Larry,” said the chief. “He always uses big words when he's traumatized. What's the problem, sir?”
“Well, um, you see, the thing is, it's like this …” said Mr Dumble.

A hilarious book which will make young boys and girls giggle! I loved this story and can't wait to read it to our 6 year old and 3 year old grandsons, and I am sure the 6 year old will want to continue reading it to his little brother. He absolutely loves to read and they are both very much into studying and learning more all the time so this silly, giggly story will delight and entertain them.
It is written clearly and has great imagination, and I would recommend it for kids from 6-12 to read by themselves, but also little ones from 3-5 would also enjoy having it read to them. It would make a great addition for a school library, as well as a family shelf.

It was as funny as the first book. The only disappointment is that it was a very short book.

Suspenseful yet bright
I tried to drag this book out for several days, but my 4 and 6 year olds kept wanting more. It kept them at the edge of their beds, but without any scary stuff. Lots of giggling too. A real treat.

Okay read
Kids loved the first book but were so-so about this one. They wanted all 4 books but didn't like this one as much as the first. Hopefully the other 2 are better.
