Weasels

Laughter is the best medicine, and this book will make EVERYONE laugh till they need to run to the bathroom! The thing is, all the weasel characters are completely recognizable. We all know all those types, and even the littlest kids recognize this. (Our three year olds certainly identify with the Huge Drill routine.) I took the book out of our library, and immediately ordered one for ourselves. A real gem!

This is a fantastic book for any kid (or adult) who likes engineering. great sense of humor and story lines appeal to kids and adults. I've read this to kids as young as 4 who are very engineer-minded and as old as 9, and given this as gifts to multiple children. It keeps everyone's attention. We love the comic book style and complex illustrations that you find new things in with each read. Great subplots that can spark long conversations with curious kids. All elementary school libraries should have this book!

We randomly rented this from the library and were laughing out loud. We bought it and the kids love it. Of the 100 children’s books we own this is definitely in the top few and perhaps the funniest one.

One of the most hilarious children's books I read this year. I recommend it for kids who are very comfortable reading picture books on their own but aren't quite to chapter books yet - there's lots of print in this book and it's really fun for them to follow the action and dialogue on their own. With that said, it's also a super fun book for adults to read to kids. Adults will find it funny too. Highly recommended.

I had to have 2 of these, one for each of the Grandsons. I call them Weasels because thay get into everything and cause constant chaos.

Such a clever book! My 4 and 6 year old nephews read it non-stop, and I don't mind reading it with them. I always notice something new that I haven't seen before.

Bought this for a friend of mine who happens to teach 2nd grade. She was thrilled. The illustrations are hysterical and eye-catching and anybody who glories in silliness can't help but love this book.

Years later, still my kids favorite book. He recites every line from memory now.

World domination is an interesting concept to explain to a 3-year-old, but she seemed to understand that the weasels were trying to take over everything. She's just started learning about machines and electricity, so found the (well telegraphed) punchline about 3/4 of the way through the book, really funny.There's a LOT going on on each page, and there's some great characterisation, with similarities to Bond villains, and all sorts.A fun book to read for 3 to 13-yr-olds, with kids less than 6 needing it to be read to them by mum or dad.

Weasels plotting world domination? A MUST for all mini (and not so mini) megalomaniacs. This is a visually stunning and incredibly creative read for small and older children, mums and dads included!I have read this story to every class in my primary school and all year groups have loved it and found so much to talk about! My 2 year old son sat in his bedroom and spent 15 mins looking through it,spotting what all the weasels were doing, chattering away to himself describing their actions whilst me, and his proud father, sat next to him watching quietly. What more do you need?

A grown adult who works with children, rather than a child myself, I was thoroughly amused by this book from start to finish. The story is funny, witty and incredibly cute, while the illustrations are utterly charming. Each time you return to a page, you see something new, something equally funny that you didn't spot before - this simply adds to the charm and appeal of the book, which is brilliant. I shall look forward to reading it with the children I look after in future!

As a Primary Adviser I can recommend this book to parents and teachers who believe that independence, choice and fun are important when reading and learning. Spare text ... Yes. But the journey you go on with the weasels engages eye and heart. There are so many stories within stories as we wander through the labyrinth of weasel world. These can be stories of our imagination, as we recognise characters and track them through the book. And how human is that ending! Life messages if you need them abound, not least that everyone counts. Bravo brave writer! Looking forward to the next book!

Loved this book. So much scope to talk about all The characters & their activities. My 2.1/2 year old granddaughter never looses interest & wants o go through the book over & over again.
