Read this as soon as it came out, got it signed by tom himself. I can tell you that I'm 18 and this book might officially be for "12 years old" but It's a book you can enjoy at any age, with his amazing, funny and sometimes scary plot. It's like those childhood christmas movies you watched as a child and still watch now. It'll never get old. Good job on this one Thomas, big thumbs up👍

My 6y/o and I loved reading this book. We liked the characters and the twists. We're going to be reading the next book. Also there are a couple of nods to the Dinosaur that pooped series which we found funny.
