This book can make you scared to turn the page like I was. My favourite character was Barry because of his adventure.I would recomend this book to people who like long books.

I thought it was interesting how every child got to choose the parents that were right for them it must of been exiting! I liked Barry the boy who went round lots of different parents and couldn't decide which ones he liked before his birthday! I would recommend it to people who like adventurous stories because this story is very adventurous!

It was a really good book about a boy trying to pick out new parents and he only has a couple of days to do it. Although it was a good book there was just one problem, for me you’d always know whats about to happen

This book was good because you could choose your favourite parents. My favourite character was Barry because he didn't like his first parents but liked them in the end. I would recommend it to a friend.

I would reccomend it to people around 10 years old and my favourite parent in it was the couple who ran a football team and who were very energetic

This book is a humorous novel, and I think that within the first couple of chapters I was gripped and loving it. I think that if you like funny books this is the one for you!

I love this book because it has lots of random stuff in it. It has something for everyone : football, celebrities, video games, James Bond, big fancy houses and camping. It is a fab book too read.
