I'm 9 years old. I liked this book because I like Pokemon. The story is about Ash gets Pikachu as his Pokemon and Pikachu won't listen to him. Ash meets Brock and Misty in this book.

This book is pretty cool. it tells the story about Ash Ketchum and pikachu and a few of the adventures they go through. I think this book was mostly aimed at younger fans, because i read it really fast.i like this series because it's based on the t.v. episodes (well they actually are the real episodes).If you want your kid(s) to read a book but can't get them to, and they like pokemon this is a good choice.
