review 1: I really only got this because I was baffled that our library system ordered it since I didn't think books about kids' spelling/grammar/whatever errors were cool anymore. Turns out it's also British, so I really, really have to wonder who's going to grab it from our library and laugh so hard about a child writing "chaffage" instead of "chaffinch." I'm not saying I wasn't amused by any of the examples, but it sure was a weird choice!
review 2: Essentially a collection of spelling errors made by children that you can read and feel smug and laugh at them because they don't have as good a grasp of spelling as you do. I got bought this because I'm a teacher but I have to be honest, there's some genuinely funny things in it:"The best dinner is spagete bolonase. Its m... moreain ingredents are pasta, sause and minge meat."Heh heh. Minge meat. Like from a lady's part.That's pretty much the level of the book. I enjoyed it. less
