Reviews

[Maggie · Rating 5 out of 5]

the whole kell series is wonderful. we read it a chapter at a time for bedtime. my son so enjoys the adventures and the learning. the books bring up realistic subjects for kids to talk about which provides a good chance to talk about them.

these books are also humorous and fun. kell's relationship with his friends, especially bree is great. he gets upset with her but still loves her because they are such good friends. he often says, "earth girls are weird". my son wholeheartedly agrees and says the same about his sister all the time.

My son says it was a really good book. He's enjoying the series. It's a funny book that makes my laugh as well. My son keeps wanting to stop and discuss the things that happen in the story - the book has really captured his attention
