it was very very funny. i wish i was as smart as the malloy girls. :) lol
Great continues the boys vs girls series!!
Even more fun than boys start the war
I liked this one a bit better than the first (The Boys Start the War), but I still didn't find much intellectual stimulation in it, so it was totally a reading-for-the-kids-sake book. It's hard to say no to a book that the kids laugh out loud at and beg for more when reading time is done. We'll probably be reading more in the series, or I will at least get them for the kids to read if they want.
Thoroughly and completely enjoyed this series, which I read to my daughters through Nov & Dec at bedtime. Love, love, love Phyllis Reynolds Naylor for elementary aged readers. Love, love, love this series for the Brady-bunch era of hijinx between children... Love, love, love that neither the boys nor the girls are clear-case winners of the "war", though, my daughters do believe there was a winner. Whole-heartedly recommend as a family read and to all elementary-aged readers.
I kinda liked this book...even though it was childish but the ideas they had for their costumes and what they would do to each other was nice...
i read this book in about 5th grade and still have it.
i remeber liking it.its fun even if you arent in the 9-12 range it was written for

I thought that this book was OK. I didn't really like the halloween theme though. I guess every book has its own style...
Battle of the Books 2013. I liked the second book a little better than the first. Sam loved this series.
Another great installment. I wish kids in real life were as clever and funny as the Hatfords and Malloys.

good
These are kind of littleish kid books but they're really good and hilarious and the dynamics between the boys and the girls are genius. you should read them. all of them...
The second book in the series contains Hatford/Malloy pranks and tricks.
A funny sequel to "The Boys Start the War".
It's pretty much the same as the first one, so if you liked it you'll probably like this one.
