    You would think they have enough money from this series?!! Enough was enough after the first book.

    Returned.

    My boys had me return this book. They did not like the storyline and didn't find (nor I) the "strawberries and lime smelling fart" funny. They were confused by it. I have never been asked to return a book. It didn't seem to follow the same style as the other "How to Catch" books.

    The story is clever and a nice spin on monsters in the closet for small children! I will most definitely start collecting the series.
