5.0 out of 5 stars My 10 yr. old LOVES this book!, February 10, 2009
By 
T.S.S. "Tracy" (Cypress, Texas United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Growing Up Super Average: The Adventures of Average Boy (Paperback)
I bought this book for my son who absolutely loves it. It's easy to read, hilarious, and even uplifting. Since reading isn't my son's favorite thing, I read the first chapter to him and then he was hooked. He laughs so hard when he reads it, I'm not sure how he sees the page. His younger sister begs him read it to her too, and when he does, they both giggle uncontrollably.
The back of each chapter has a "God's Guide" section which includes a Bible verse reference and a couple of questions. My son usually skips this part in other books. However, while reading this book, he actually opens his Bible, looks up the verse(s), and writes his answers in the book. Each chapter concludes with a funny "Bonus" Activity, tip, or question.
My son decided this book will make great birthday gifts for some of his friends so I'm ordering more.
Hearing my son's genuine laughter makes this book worth its weight in gold! I highly recommend it.
