I thought this book was really funny. I'd like to read the first book too. The Freaks are really funny, especially Alan Block. It made me think about what I'm like when I play football and how important it is to have fun with your friends. I hope there will be more Freaks books. -- Rylando (aged 8) * Toppsta *
