Knucklehead
September 26, 2009
Scieszka, Jon. Knucklehead.
How did Jon Scieszka get so funny? He grew up as one of six brothers with Catholic school, lots of comic books, lazy summers at the lake with time to kill, babysitting misadventures, TV shows, and jokes told at family dinner.

Knuckle Head is a hysterical book about growing up with five other brothers and some of the jobs it involves. It is a great book to read. It is easy and funny.

This book has humor, and more humor. I laughed for the hole 40 minutes it took me to read it. I say ‘40′ minutes is that this book is pretty short. It’s amazing how all the action and fun was packed into this book. (The book reminds me of the big bang!)

I think Knuklehead is a Awesome book it isn’t a book I would reccomend for a younger grade but it definetly is a great book for older kids. I think that it is very nice to write a book about yourself with all the things you did in your childhood. Jon Scieszka is a great author.

Greg Heffley | October 21st, 2009 at 12:23 pm
Knucklehead is a great book. I think Jon and Jim did crazy and daring stuff. They could have got them selves killed with the dryer bag bomb thing, because the chemicals could of blown up there house. But the book was really funny and I’m enjoying it.
IT IS A GOOD BOOK ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

In my literacy class were reading Knuckle head. Were not quite finished reading the book, but so far i think this book is really funny. Some parts of the book is really wierd, but overall I’m really liking this book. I would recommend this book to anybody.

Manny Heffley | October 21st, 2009 at 12:28 pm
Knucklehead is a awsome book and very funny. This book is only for older kids. Little kids might get bad ideas from this book.
52.
Rodick Heffley | October 21st, 2009 at 12:32 pm
I think Knucklehead was a awesome book. It was very interesting and funny. Like crossing swords and putting fire crackers in there model air planes and chuck them into the sky. Don’t try the things he did.
IT WAS A GREAT BOOK ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

katedavie | November 4th, 2009 at 12:19 pm
Cr9205, could you explain this a bit more? The “boring” and “interesting” comments seem to contradict each other.
61.
katedavie | November 4th, 2009 at 1:55 pm
Which part did you think was the funniest?
62.
Anonymous | November 4th, 2009 at 4:41 pm
katedavie, what do you mean by that? did you like the book?
63.
katedavie | November 5th, 2009 at 7:56 am
I like this book a lot! I think it is even more enjoyable if you are as old as I am, because the family photos, report cards, and other illustrations look like artifacts from my childhood. Plus, I remember when parents, usually moms, would routinely tell kids to go play outside and not come back in until supper — totally unsupervised!

oh wait, i know, ME!
