As an elementary teacher, I have found this fun and hilarious book to be a younger "Harry Potter". "Jacob Two-Two" is straightforward, human, and vivid. It highlights the themes of empathy, independence, and power--a strong message about the value of every individual. I would highly recommend it for any child from grades 1-4. Excellent!

Jacob Two-Two is one of the most imaginative stories I've read in a while. It reminds of being a kid in my carefree days. I have actually watered my mom's flowers an hour after she had and flooded her flowerbeds.

Basically, the story is about a 6 year-old boy who repeats everything twice just to be heard because he's the youngest out of five. Because he wants to be helpful, he wants to run an errand for the first time. He goes to Mr. Cooper, the greengrocer to get two pounds of firm, red tomatoes. After insulting Mr. Cooper (he didn't really insult Mr. Cooper, Mr. Cooper was just teasing him, but Jacob doesn't know that), he ran into Richmond Park to hide from the police. He was afraid the police might send him to jail for insulting a big person. Then, in Richmond Park he falls asleep into a crazy dream with the Hooded Fang, two super heroes, and a children's prison.

This book is about a young boy ( 2+2+2 years old) who is sentto a children's prison in the foggiest part of England. This prison isrun by a Former wrestler called The Hooded Fang. The Hooded Fang considers himself vile, vicious, and mean, but nobody agrees. The Intrepid Shapiro and the Fearless O'Toole plot to rescue Jacob and all the other children in the Children's Prison but there are a few kinks. A worker at the Children's prison called Mr. Fox leads them to the Children's Prison. After a great battle... I won't tell you the rest. S. Perry

Great book! i found this book at a thrift store and bought it for our son, he was 10 at the time. we actually read this one outloud as a family and EVERYONE enjoyed it! the story conveys a wonderful message about the strength of children and the importance of them being heard and understood, and treated fairly. We recommend this book whole-heartedly!

When Jacob Two-two is thrown in the childrens prison on Slimers Isle for mocking a big person it's up to him with a little help from Fearless O'Toole and the Intrepid Shapiro (child power) to save the kids of Slimers Isle from the mean, excrutiating,vile Hooded Fang.Read this book to find out if Jacob Two-Two, even as small as he is can save the children of Slimers Isle.

If you like lots of laughs and humor,you'll like Jacob Two-Two! Jacob says everything two times because if he says it once,no one will listen. When he goes out on his first errand he gets in trouble and ends up in a jail cell. The judge sends him to Slimer's Isle. Jacob sends a letter asking for help, but I won't tell you any MORE!

Jacob Two Two is ignored the first time, so he says itagain. One day he gets yelled at by green grocer. Running home he runshimself into more trouble By going to " SLIMERS ISLAND WHERE NO BRATS RETURN". I think you'll enjoy this book I give it 5 stars. If you want to know more you have to read the book yourself.

This book is one of the finest children books ever written. No matter how many times I read it, I still laugh (harder and harder). It's a real treat that's worth searching for so that you and your children will laugh too.
