This book is written for middle schoolers...
I hated this book. I read it to my students because it was recommended here and I made a mistake. I hated it. It was age-inappropriate for 9-year-olds and was confusing to them. It also has curse words in it!

You will not be Disapointed
I love the book "Eyes of Kid Midas" because it gives a great message toward children and it makes you want to read more and more righst when you satarts reading it. My advise to children is to read this book because you will not be disapointed. This book also give a great message which is that toys, money, and getting whatever you want isn't the most important thing in the world.

Because of the Divine Watch - a review by Amelia, age 10
Kevin Midas is nothing more then a major bully target for the school's big bully, Bertram Tarson. Then, just because of a gloomy camping trip, an urge to beat Bertram, lack of common sense, and a pair of glasses, Kevin finds himself in charge of the world. At first it seems like fun, but as time goes by it gets out of control. Can Kevin repair the damage he has done or has he made permanent changes in the world?
The Eyes of Kid Midas is a good book for people ages 8- 100. 100 if adults like reading good kids’ chapter books. This book is also probably more appealing to people who like fiction, adventure, and suspense. I really liked this book for many reasons, but the main ones are that it describes things exactly the way they would be in real life if a boy had the power to rule the world. The other reason is it keeps you wondering so you can’t stop!

A Great Book
Th Eyes of Kid Midas is a wonderful book, though iffy in its portrayment of violance and greed. It does in a way teach a valuble lesson and I urge people of all ages to go out and read this very entertaining book.

How to help your kids and make them answer the questions!
this book shows how a normal kid can find something (i.e. Video games) addicting and shows them what will happen if they play to much and what will happen when there addicted. If they say their not addicted then tell them to read this book it really helps!
another thing is
Families can talk about the addictive nature of the glasses. What are some of the early warning signs that the glasses might be more trouble than they're worth? Why doesn't Kevin pay more notice to the problems with the glasses? What would you wish for if you had the glasses? Do you think you would handle them differently than Kevin did?
