Review Quotes: 'Narrator Bartholomew Inkster brings Lemony Snicket-like irony to frame the story. Self-conscious chapter titles ("Welcoming the Character that Rounds Things Out") and references to literature throughout the narrative make this a feast for middle-grade book lovers. Kids who like quirky adventure stories with idiosyncratic characters will enjoy a simpler kind of fun.' - Publishers Weekly Review--Publishers Weekly Review
