Customer Reviews

Yucky!

I really liked this book. The reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because I thought it was gross when the people ate the bugs. UGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anyway, you should really read this book if you LOVE anything gross.

I think it is a great book to read

It shows how people will do something crazy just to win a contest this one boy Jack did a crazy thing like putting Hamburgers on his dads engine and Andy Moller is Jack's cousin he was cooking crickets in brownies and giving them to kids at lunch and the kids did not know.I like this book because they will do anything to get something.I think people today are the same way like if you want some candy you ask your mom can you have some money to go and get some candy from the store

Wonderful!

Andy Moller is a typical fifth grader, a great kid with a fantastic sense of humor. Andy's true gift, however, is his unbelievable imagination. Cooking insects as a food source is a great topic to write on. The book is very enjoyable with lots of family humor thrown in. A great read for kids of all ages. Do yourself a favor and get your hands on it soon!

A fifth grade boy wants to use bugs as a future food source.

I think this book is funny and exciting. Andy has a real sense of humor. I like the fact that the world can use bugs as a future food source. Maya Ribot (mmarrero@worldnet.att.net) Boston
