This book was very funny! Judging by the title you could probably imagine it would be. This book was about a boy ,named Jamie Grimm, who was saved in a fire. Here is the sad part. His family was not saved in time. His mom, his dad, and his sister all died. He only is paralyzed from the waist down.I asked myself through the novel, "Was he lucky? Or did he have bad luck?". This book has him being a very funny boy living in New Jersey. He comes into this stage were he is always sad. He finally starts something he loves to do! He tries out for the funniest kid in New Jersey and wins it! He gets placed in the funnest kid in the world contest. The weekend of the big contest a hurricane hits New Jersey and tares apart the city where he lives. He doesn't know how he will ever get through it and thinks that he should not enter in the contest. But then he is reminded that if you win you get 1,000,000 dollars! He could rebuild the city! He gives u the stage fright and the sickness of love struck from one of the competitors and Wins!!! I loved this book! Hope you can read it. Because you should!

This is SO NOSTALGIC. I still remember these days, when I used to binge read and love stuff like that, such as "House of Robots", by the same author. Yes, the book is simple, may be dumb sometimes, but it is also funny, nostalgic, and teaches you a lesson. I will read it even when I'm older.

Forever with whatever this genre is❤️

My son and I loved this book. The first in the series is still our favorite, but this one is super close. A great lesson that sometimes laughter is the best medicine!

A escrita? Como era de esperar é bastante simples e permite uma leitura bastante rápida e fluída, com muito humor à mistura.

O enredo? Este é já o terceiro e como não li os anteriores não consigo estabelecer comparações entre eles. Deste posso dizer que o tema é interessante e é abordado de uma maneira bastante leve e cómica. Um miúdo que anda de cadeira de rodas, sofre de bulling na escola por parte dos colegas e para ultrapassar esse constrangimento recorre ao lema “rir é o melhor remédio”. Este talento para rir e fazer rir acaba por o tornar famoso e agora tem de aprender a viver com mais estava nova condição. O uso de humor constante, com muitas piadas à mistura e banda desenhada incluída, torna este livro cativante para um leitor jovem. Para os leitores mais existe é um livro com pouco conteúdo, muito básico e parece apenas que se está a ler um resumo.

As personagens? Jamie é um rapaz encantador, que tem um talento fantástico e uma visão da sua condição física bastante perspicaz. Os seus verdadeiros amigos são mesmo seu amigos e estão sempre ao lado independentemente do ele faça. A interacção entre as diversas personagens é pouco significativa e interactiva.

A conclusão? Apesar de ter considerado a sua leitura muito superficial é um livro que recomendo para os leitoras mais jovens, uma vez que, é recheado de lições importantes e com ensinamentos de ouro. É decididamente um livro que gostava que a minha filha tivesse na estante.

I Totally Funniest is about a handicapped by named Jamie. In the previous books Jamie was orphaned by a car accident killing his mom, dad, and his little sister Jenny. After that he moved in with his aunt and her family. His uncle also lived down the street. Uncle Frankie suggested that Jamie enter the “Planet's Funniest Kid Comic Contest” so he did. Then he won every qualifier leading up to the final. Now he is ready to leave for Hollywood, but the contest is postponed because Hurricane Sam blows through Jamie’s town. Will the contest be rescheduled? Or will Jamie go back to normal life sooner than he expected.

I didn’t like this book as much of the other ones in the series. This one was more of a recap to the other books. During the most exciting part they rushed through it as if they wanted to give an introduction for the next book.

Another great book in James Patterson's middle school series where he writes book related to the life of middle school students. I liked this book because it was funny and it ended the series very well. The book is about Jamie Grimm, an orphaned middle school student who lives with his relatives after his family died in a car crash, finishing up the Planets Funniest Kids contest. He has to journey to Hollywood where he is determined to win the contest. I would recommend this book series because it gives you a feel for the struggles in the life of a middle school student. Another reason I love this book so much is because it is a quick read, but still enjoyable. Overall, this was a great book and I would highly recommend this book series to anyone.

I Totally Funniest is the third book of the I funny series. In this book Jamie Grimm countinues to try to be the most funniest kids comic. Jamie wants to be a stand up comedian, but most of the time he's sitting down, because he was paralized from the waste down from a car accident. While he's trying to come up with new material for the up coming contest, he has to deal with school and friends. When Jamie finds out who he is up against in the competition he gets scared and choked up. I Totally Funniest was my favorite book out of all the books in the world. i would DEFINITELY reccommened this to my friends.

I like this book and I would recommend it for kids who want something fun to read. I would recommend this book to kids who like realistic fiction. I like this book because it is fun to read and it is a little funny.

This book is about Jamie a standup comedian in a wheelchair. After scoring big on national TV in the semifinals contest, everyone back home is jumping on the Jamie Grimm bandwagon, and all the attention might be going to his head. Not only are his friendships starting to suffer, but the pressure of coming up with his best material ever for the ultimate standup act to snag the final win in Hollywood is pushing Jamie to the brink. Suddenly, life isn't looking very funny anymore.

This book is about a boy named Jamie Grimm, and it's a little hard to be a world famous comedian in middle school, like everybody crowding him and him not being able to hang out with his true friends because he needs to practice for the Funniest kid in the world contest. But will Jamie Grimm be the Funniest Kid on the planet? If you want answers then read this book.

It was such a good book! I loved it! <3 You should read it because it is funny and sometimes sad also sometimes you want to yell "GO JAMMIE" when you now your happy (cant really say why because spoilers!) You have to read "I FUNNY" and "I EVEN FUNNIER" before reading "I TOTALLY FUNNIEST".

I like the I Totally Funniest because it about a middle school kid who lost his legs and family in car crash.Jamie Grimm is the funniest kid in the planet and heading to the Planet's Funniest Kid Comic Contest in Hollywood.If you love funny and with great picture and lot of shorts chapter.

[Mompop · Rating 3 out of 5]

A must have (trilogy) if you want to discover whether Jamie is the Funniest comic - but, doesn't the title give away the ending?

[Ben L. · Rating 4 out of 5]

I totally funniest is the third and final book of this series. The recurring theme is that you can't let attention go to your head. One example of this is when the media starts to rush Jamie. While this does make Jamie higher than a kite, he can always count on Uncle Frankie To pull him down to earth so he can focus on winning the Planet's Funniest Kid Comic Contest. Can Jamie pull himself together to win the competition? Read I Totally Funniest to find out!
