Reviews

[Caleb · Rating 1 out of 5]

This is probably the worst book I've ever read to my kid. It is full of bad puns, strike one. The main character, the saw, is mercilessly bullied by the other tools. The saw character can only be redeemed by an act of heroism, and in the end, he continues to assume the bullied role by drawing attention to his own flatulence. The saw has no internal sense of self worth.

She enjoyed it anyway.

An awsome little story about Nick the saw. This book could be use to encourge kidos to never give up!
