This review is from: Raging Robots and Unruly Uncles (Hardcover)

Two brothers who are total opposites and have children who refuse to adopt their ways of life, wish that they could have children more like themselves-with disastrous results, but all the commotion forces them to realise the mistakes they've made, and unite for a common cause. This book is absolutely hilarious! It's perfect for young children, but at the same time, will amuse the adults with it's sophisticated wit. Although a bit predictable at times, it is definitely a must-read for those (of any age) who like a bit of humour combined with a feel-good story.
