Strange Family!
A book similar to the Series of Unfortunate Events, though a bit more cheerful. There is a large glossary at the back that has some great definitions for the extensive vocabulary found throughout the book.

Lois LOWRY?
Having read The Giver, I had a hard time imagining the same author writing this book. But hey, we're all a little bipolar, right?
I don't disagree that the actually morals of the story are ridiculous. And no, I never did like Tim. But the book comes across as a satire, and I liked it a lot. The dictionary and bibliography were by far the best parts of the book though. Read those if you read nothing else.

Laugh-out-loud - Great Book Club Book
A laugh-out-loud story. Memorable. Great vocabulary! We read this book for our mother-daughter book club. Most girls really enjoyed it, but it was too dark for a couple of kids. Moms loved it and were genuinely amused and impressed.
