Someone in class described this as "like Seinfeld for kids." Well, I don't enjoy Seinfeld, and I didn't particularly enjoy this book. I would just rather not spend my time with jerks. That said, I do see why kids, particularly 9 to 12-year-old boys, would like it, and I would be happy to let them read it. As long as I didn't have to read it again with them. I did think the illustrations were fun, but the font was rather painful.
