Media Reviews
Boys who struggle in school will especially appreciate the story, but this enjoyable, fast-paced novel will draw other children as well. (Booklist) Humor, magic, a school bully, a pet dachshund named Cheerio, and a pet iguana that slurps soup at dinner add up to a fun novel with something for everyone. (School Library Journal)
