5.0 out of 5 stars This was a great book!, April 14, 1999

This review is from: The RUGRATS MOVIE (Paperback)

This book was excellent because it featured my favorite characters, the Rugrats! I decided to read this book when I found out that it was also featuring a new character, Dil Pickles,(Tommy Pickles little brother). If I had to rate this book 1-10 I would rate it 10 because this book is such an adventurous,thrilling and animated novel.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Rugrats Movie:A Novel for the Ages, November 8, 1998

This review is from: The RUGRATS MOVIE (Paperback)

This is one of the best novelizations I've ever read. Special congrats to Mark and Cathy East Dubowski. The book, which is adapted from the movie (word-for-word, even!) tells of the Rugrats gang introducing a new Pickle:Dylan Prescott ("Dil") Pickles, Tommy's baby brother, whom the Rugrats get fed up with. Then, while playing with Tommy and Dil's father's new invention, "the Reptar Wagon", the babies end up lost in a forest full of monkeys, who have escaped from a circus train. Can the Rugrats cooperate with Dil and get home safely? Find out yourself and get the book! Comes with 16 pages of full-color illustrations from the movie.

3.0 out of 5 stars it was a very good book to me and my friends., June 2, 1999

Sometimes the rugrats are a little strange to me they are very silly too. The rugrats get in to a lot of stuff too and they can be a pain in the butt sometimes too like my brother.
