This book is bad because Timmy the little brother always stay up late and make loud noises so the parents can’t go to sleep, every morning the parents eyes will be very blurry because they are very tired. I think Timmy is a bad character because he always make loud noises and that is not fair for the parents . I wouldn’t recommend this book because the reader will learn to stay up late and make loud noises so the parents can’t go sleep.

I thought the book was interesting The book is about Tilly little brother waking everyone up at night and making trouble. Tilly was the best person. I found the book interesting, becos one of the people had a castle, Tilly went to the grandma house, he made a mouse come to eat an apple. I would recommend the book to someone else because its funny and interesting.
