Teacher reviewed

I got this for my 2nd graders as their end of the year gift and also to read together in small groups via Zoom.
I will confess, I ordered this book because it was the cheapest out of the others except for the first one (we already read that one and LOVED IT).

This one was excellent for my 2nd graders to teach them how to read out loud like the character is speaking because the author uses different print features (all capitals to show yelling, small text to show whispering, etc).

The only reason I gave it 4 stars was because it had words like “butt” and “stupid” and a lot of my students were uncomfortable saying them. But I explained that you can just change it into a synonym (which turned into a great review).

This is a FANTASTIC series to get a hesitant reader to begin reading!

Excellent for Readers of all Ages (Including Adults!)

Reviewed in the United States on April 5, 2018

My middle school students saw the book and were so excited because they have been waiting and frequently asking when the book would arrive. They had to wait until we finished reading Holes first though. When I read the book they were delighted -- lots of laughs and complete engagement and focus while I read the book, as always with this series. The entire series has encouraged my students to read and shown them how fun it can be to read. I personally liked this book and found it better than the last one. It also ends with a very exciting event, and I am almost certain the next book will be the best yet due to the craziness! I am so grateful for these books and Pig the Pug (Pugs are my favorite dog) which are both written by the same author. Pig makes a cameo in the first book!

My son wasn't much of a reader, ( we had some problems getting him to read outside of class/ sometimes during class) even though he was reading above his grade level. Then I read reviews on this series.... I'm so happy!!! I bought the first 5 for Christmas for my son, he read them in 2 days!!!! I couldn't believe what I was seeing! I immediately went on Amazon and bought the rest of the series! There are 12 books (currently out) in this series and its becoming a DreamWorks movies. This series has jump started a love for reading and for books that every parent wants their kid to have.

2nd grade approved!

I’m a teacher and i bought these for my classroom. My 2nd grade students absolutely LOVE these books. They are never on the shelf. They are written in a comic book style- photos with short phrases and quotes that tell the story. It’s the classic bad guys who are horrible at being bad guys type of book. I also love that even my lower readers can still get meaning from the photos and my higher readers can catch the sarcasm and deeper level jokes and understandings so these span many ages!

Great series! Thumbs Up from Third Grader!

Reviewed in the United States on September 10, 2018

Verified Purchase

My third grade nephew LOVES this series. He and I bonded over the first book and now I auto order each one as they come out. He likes the humor in them so much that he will often read parts out loud to me. I'm glad to say that I enjoy the story too. The humor I would say is about Pixar's Toy Story level (what I mean by this is, that there is usually a straight forward plot for younger kids and just enough fun word play or funny references in the background for older co-readers to spot). Reading level works for a strong reading second grader through fourth grade level. Also the message of "bad guys" trying to change their ways (akin to the sharks in Finding Nemo) is a generally nice one.

Review from a 5 year old

“Butts, butts, how do you do?
Do I like this book? I DO!

I’m named Emmy. I’m 5 years old, but you already read that.

So, what do you say when you read your books?

What a mystery! This book was fun, fun, FUN!

My favorite part was when the alien said it’s name and it had such a weird weird weird name.

That book is done, but my fun is still not done. My dad will read my the next one tomorrow night... dinosaurs were a long time ago & 2000 miles away, so we will see what happens in the next book.

The last thing I want to say is that Shark is dark. Bye!”

Great books for new reader

Reviewed in the United States on August 26, 2020

Verified Purchase

We ordered these for our then 2nd grader during remote learning. She has read a few of her brothers books with assistance from us. However she began to read independently with these. That started her reading independently with real chapter books as well. These books are a great stepping stone from the short books for new readers . These books are like comic books so they are a shorter read and have lots of pictures. Again this helps a new reader stay engaged. Great books for 1st to 2nd grade. Again these were what really helped my 2nd grader learn to read and get a passion for reading. Highly recommend.

My son is absolutely enthralled with the entire "Bad Guys" series. I began to read them to him last summer, and at age 4 1/2, he demands I read and reread them to him. He even tries to read them himself! It has really helped to excite him on the journey to learn how to read, and we love the series! I myself even enjoy them! There is some potty humor, but it doesn't bother me at all. Very HILARIOUS series and has a real plot to it! I recommend new readers read them in order.

The book is clearly a retired library book that seen better days. It’s not in great condition. I bought it as a gift for my nephew and it arrived barely in time. I’m pretty disappointed.

My 6 year old has loved these books since she loves all the books of this series. We look forward to each new release in the series! They’re funny and clever and well written and illustrated.

This series has easy to read, awesome pictures and lot of humor. My daughter loves to read the chapters and is a book for re reads as well.
