I ordered this as a class set for my second graders to read. We did a book study (reading, grammar, spelling). This is a wonderfully written book. It was so descriptive that my students were able to do some awesome visualizations (illustrations of what was read) to put up in our classroom. We ended our study unit with a trip to see the movie. My students loved the book and felt very grown up to be reading a chapter book instead of their reading books. I would recommend this book to anyone-young or old. (I also enjoyed the book!)

I used this book along with the movie and the Paper Airplane Book (Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium) as a summer class for students requiring extended school year services. The reading levels in my class went from 2nd grade to 8th grade. For my lower level readers, having the upper level readers read and explain the directions was of great benefit and it helped improve the self-confidence of the upper level reader. The constant connection with the movie and the use of the paper airplane book made this an excellent package.
