Okay read. More rambling than the earlier books. Like many of the other books, there isn’t a ton going on plotwise and it is mostly Hubie worrying. However, I found this one less entertaining. Not much happens and Hubie mostly just complains about how bored he is.
The book does incorporate different sayings and idioms in a fun way, which can be an interesting technique for teaching children various turns of phrase (back to square one, stand for something).
As always, the pictures were entertaining.
