I liked it and thought it was a nice book and my favourite character is the not bird who made the story so funny. It was pretty good and it seemed my type. I would recommend it to my sister, who would really like it.

At first I thought this book was a little boring but the more I read it the more I found it was enjoyable. My favourite character was the wise old vending machine that turned into a bad machine

I thought the book was very funny because at the start he got sent to the future in a bin! I was very surprised that Mr X had no skull! I am extremely excited to read more of these books.

I loved the imagination of the author. I also liked how the mayor was so in lurve with himself and was very vain.

It was not as humorous as the other one I read, so I would recommend the other one to my friends because I really liked that one. My favourite character was ratboy.
