Book Reviews of It's All Greek to Me #8 (Time Warp Trio)
Book Review: Entertaining, Witty, and Fun
Summary: 5 Stars
I accidentally came across this books in the library today, and was reminded of how much I love Jon Scieszka and Lane Smith. Scieszka creates loveable believable characters filled with snarky wit that keeps one chuckling throughout the entire book. And Smith's drawings are just brilliantly done. These were the kinds of books I adored as a child, and I'm glad to stumble upon them again.
Summary of It's All Greek to Me #8 (Time Warp Trio)
Everyone?s favorite time-travelers are changing their styles! The Time Warp Trio series now features a brand-new, eye-catching design, sure to appeal to longtime fans, and those new to Jon Scieszka?s wacky brand of humor.
Great Zeus! Ace author-illustrator team Jon Scieszka and Lane Smith (of Stinky Cheese Man fame) get together again for the eighth title in their popular Time Warp Trio series. Fred, Sam, and narrator Joe are innocently performing a school play about Mount Olympus when "The Book" (a magic tome so dangerous it had been locked away) whirls them into the Greek underworld. Armed with little but a fake thunderbolt and a spray-painted golden apple, they find themselves at the gates of Hades, confronting a slavering, three-headed, not at all mythical Cerberus. ("'Nice doggie, nice doggie, nice doggie,' said Sam.") After a lucky escape, they get to the "real" Olympus only to be embroiled in an increasingly dangerous series of disagreements with the cheeky, wise-cracking, bickering immortals. Will they ever find "The Book" on Olympus, as they must in order to get safely back to opening night? Well, yes--but only just. For the confused or curious, there's a short glossary of Greek gods and monsters along with a pronunciation guide. (Ages 6 to 11) --Richard Farr
