review 1: This was really cute and would be a good pick for kids who are fairly high level readers, but don't have the attention span for a full-fledged middle-grade novel yet. The vocabulary is significantly more difficult than you'd see in a transitional chapter book, but there are a lot of illustrations that take up space on every page. It's a book discussion title for my library and the only issue I have is that there's not much to discuss. Definitely will have a lot of appeal to kids, though - plenty of clever humor throughout.
review 2: This is a fun story with great illustrations. My nine year old read this to me which is a feat upon itself. Usually she tires of reading the stories about halfway through. But this one, she was too entertained to stop. Sir Sidn... moreey needs a break from running the circus and hires a man who appears to be qualified. Barnaby Brambles, the hiree, turns out to be a villain but nothing goes right for him. This is a great story which even teaches a moral in the end. less
