Customer Reviews

4.5 stars

"Poor Mr. Dinglebat was in a state. He had, he told Jacob Two-Two, recently invested a good deal of money in buying Canadian military secrets, and now he was stuck with them. 'No customers,' he said." This clever children's book by Mordecai Richler was written for his children and modeled after the same, and it was just simply a delight to read. Featuring not only Jacob Two-Two, but also I.M. Greedyguts, Miss Sour Pickle, and Perfectly Loathsome Leo Louse, this third installment of the Jacob Two-Two series made me laugh out loud at several points. I really, really enjoyed it.

Have to get use to the writing style I'm reading it...

I'm a kid at heart :D LOVE watching Jacob on QUBO. Got rid of Cable SOO glad there is something else, since I don't have NICK, CN, TBS, miss "Monk", was SUPPOSE to be on NBC. ANYWAY, back to the book. I'm reading more. Even if I did have CABLE or whatever. Read online stuff, etc, it's nice to have a book that's not a big deal. Pick up anytime!!
