5.0 out of 5 stars Fun for kids and adults
I've read many of the books in this series and all are fun and enjoyable, especially the ones by Terry Deary.

I've read many of the books in this series and all are fun and enjoyable, especially the ones by Terry Deary.

They are written in a humourous light which will be quite appealing to the average 10 year old kid. I wish these books were around when I was a kid.
