review 1: See on üks ääretult napakas, aga humoorikas lugu hullumeelsete ideedega professor Proktorist ja tema kahest väikesest sõbrast, kes talle abiks on. Kuna tegevus toimub Norras, siis ei ole midagi parata, kui mõningad nimed on parajad keeleväänajad ning kohaolustik ühele Eesti lapsele võõraks jääb, aga seda kompenseerib vaimukus ning geniaalne lähenemine teemale, mis ometigi peaks iga lapse kasvõi ühe suunurgaga muigama panema.Minu lemmiktegelane, Bulle, on väga asjalik ja vaimukas ning mõjub äärmiselt värskendavana oma avameelsusega ning pealehakkamisega. Ei mingit poliitilist korrektsust või keerutamist ja paha saab paha palga.
review 2: Nilly, who is incredibly tiny for a grade school student, moves into a new house near Lisa (who is in hi
... mores class), and makes the acquaintance of Dr. Proctor, an eccentric scientist who has invented a powder that makes people fart. There's the low grade, average ("totally normal") fart kind (and the farts don't smell), but then there is the industrial strength stuff that causes Nilly to launch into space and chance bodily injury. Dr. Proctor hasn't been able to sell any of the powder, but Nilly and Lisa have a small business going at their school. Eventually, the two get some revenge on the evil twins Truls and Trym with the powder, but also save the twon festival by using the powder wisely. Strengths: I'm sure that there are a huge number of tween boys who would pick this up just because it had fart in the title. The book has some amusement value.Weaknesses: This is translated from the Norwegian, and has that odd, written-by-author-of-adult-fiction feel to it; it's condescending in many ways, plus goofy in a way that I'm not sure would really resonate with 6th graders in the US. 3rd graders, maybe. less
