4 stars Okay, after reading so many negative reviews for this book, I’m going to start with a warning. Despite the cutesy art-style, this is not a book meant for children. I got a copy from the library and there is a big old YA sticker on it, but it appears that some people were…

Illustrated by David Roberts 4 stars An adorable picture book about a young scientist who never stops asking questions. Obviously I loved the focus on a girl interested in a STEM field, but I also kind of liked that she’s a bit of a trouble maker. She definitely makes mistakes and gets a bit caught…

4 stars This book is so up, down, and all around, it is hard not to love. It is like being inside Poehler’s brain. Yes, much of the text is very scattered and Poehler will go off on multiple tangents when telling a story, but she always comes back to the original point eventually and…

3 stars A cute, quick read. Just like the first book in this series, it was a good read, but I didn’t like it as much as the Judy Moody books. The events in the Stink books feel more superficial than those in the Judy Moody series. I did like that Judy appeared a little…

4 stars No matter how many of these books I read, I just can’t get enough. I love this series. A quick, fun read that is educational and entertaining. This book was more suspenseful than some of the other ones I have read and it worked very well. I really liked that Osborne worked respecting…
