Andy Moller is a typical fifth grader, a great kid with a fantastic sense of humor. Andy's true gift, however, is his unbelievable imagination. Cooking insects as a food source is a great topic to write on. The book is very enjoyable with lots of family humor thrown in. A great read for kids of all ages. Do yourself a favor and get your hands on it soon!

It shows how people will do something crazy just to win a contest this one boy Jack did a crazy thing like putting Hamburgers on his dads engine and Andy Moller is Jack's cousin he was cooking crickets in brownies and giving them to kids at lunch and the kids did not know.I like this book because they will do anything to get something.I think people today are the same way like if you want some candy you ask your mom can you have some money to go and get some candy from the store

I really liked this book. The reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because I thought it was gross when the people ate the bugs. UGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anyway, you should really read this book if you LOVE anything gross.

I think this book is funny and exciting. Andy has a real sense of humor. I like the fact that the world can use bugs as a future food source. Maya Ribot (mmarrero@worldnet.att.net) Boston

The novel, Beetles lightly Toasted, is one of the worst books I've ever read! The book described, the setting just ok, but did horrible with the characters. With sections like `Andy walked down the hall, a hall covered with, disgusting germs and the people, oh! The people were just as bad. This story was, is and, will always be, the worst book ever!

The main Character wasn't very interesting and believable. The author, Phyllis Reynolds Naylor, wasn't doing so well with creating and introducing characters throughout the story. Earl was the worst of them all. Naylor described him as an overweight older brother of Andy.

I wouldn't recommend cow-manure so, I certainty wouldn't recommend this book! Yes, yes I know what you are thinking, but, the book is that bad! I hate books that "make" you imagine what you already have imagined with a different book (nothing new).

If you want to read a terrible novel, be my guest but beware, authors like, Madeline L`engel, Phyllis Reynolds Naylor
