This unauthorised by Fox or anyone to do with The Simpsons trivia book contains over 1000 questions on one of the best comedy series ever made. The only problem is that the majority of them are so easy that even someone who has seen only a few episodes will have no trouble answering them. The book is divided into Homer level (easy) Marge Level (no difference to Homer level) and Lisa Level. The 100 Lisa level questions are the only ones that regular viewers may be challenged by. So hence that is what you are buying, a book of 100 questions not 1000. It almost seems this is a rush job by the authors trying to rush an idea into the market before an official version comes out. Buy the Simpsons Guide to Springfield or other better quality Simpsons books instead to gain a better knowledge of everyone's favourite yellow family.

Is this book for adults or kids? Actually, it is written for kids, not adults. The questions are divided up into Homer, Marge and Lisa levels and, as a previous reviewer said, the Homer level questions are very, very easy, suitable for the youngest viewer. Then it gets harder. I think it's harsh to say it reads like a rush job. The questions are well worded. They don't look padded. See if you can find a wrong answer! The questions are given straight - leaving humour to the show, thankfully. It does what it says. 1000 questions would be too much for anyone - that is kind of the idea!

So it is a safe bet. Buy this for your favourite young Simpsons fanatic!!
