Teacher thoughts while reading:

-Every book starts with Harold and George doing an anagram
-Ever book has GREAT vocabulary (Ex. from this one: billowing, narratively convenient, fizzled, improbability, jubilant, mock, scurried & many more)
-Science and math in this one
-Every Harold & George comic has misspellings- would be good for spelling instruction
-Puns

what a special book! this one was full of illustrations and comics and even something a bit like wreck-this-journal. the author also broke the fourth wall which was super cool.

This was such a cute great book! It made me laugh, and I love the illustrations, they're so fun and colorful! These books were literally apart of my childhood, so it's great to finally have one of my own. I can't wait to get more.
Again, it's just such a fun, energetic, and creative story, and I love it so much. I can't wait to read it again, and I also love George and Harold, they're great best friends.
Anyway, stop reading my really short review, and go read this witty, funny, and charming book!
