1.0 out of 5 stars If you buy this I will lose all respect for you, December 6, 2006

By	Bucky's Mom (Texas, USA) - See all my reviews

My four year old picked this up at a Scholastic book fair at her school. I have an aversion to the way Bratz look, but figured I could get past it and this would be like many other stupid but harmless children's series paperbacks she enjoys.

No. My main gripes are two. 1) The language is very slangy ("cuz," "totally" used a billion times) which is difficult for beginning readers to grasp and not what they need to be exposed to anyway. 2) The relentless focus in the text, not just the art, on the girls-only posse, looking "super-cute" and other aspects of airheaded-ness. Also, as a minor point, the plot is very stupid.

However, I have to say my four year old daughter seems quite enchanted with her purchase and her two year old brother likes it for the animals in it. I will be sneaking it out of the house at my earliest possible opportunity.
