Review

Praise for THE NOTEBOOK OF DOOM #1: RISE OF THE BALLOON GOONS"Cranking up the horrorlarity with googly eyed cartoon figures and sight gags on nearly every page, Cummings pitches his nervous but resourceful newcomer into a climactic, all-out battle with an entire army of aggressive, air-stealing bendy balloons.... An unusually promising series opener for proto-Goosebumps fans." -KIRKUS REVIEWSPraise for THE EENSY WEENSY SPIDER FREAKS OUT!"Clever text full of witty asides." -SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNALPraise for MORE BEARS!"[Artwork that is] infused with zaniness of fun." -SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL

5.0 out of 5 stars Another great Notebook of Doom story!
Reviewed in the United States on November 7, 2019

My second grade son loves to read and LOVES all things spooky. Although he loves to read he's been a little behind in starting reading chapter books. These are the first chapter books he's been really into. He can read them on his own, but reads them slowly and struggles with an occasional word. They are definitely age appropriate though and he is starting to get faster reading them independently. Whether he's reading them on his own or we're reading them to him, he's completely captivated by these stories. He loves the monsters and the art work throughout the book. As a parent, I enjoy the stories too. They are cute, funny stories, without any obnoxious characters or storylines. I love that my son gets so absorbed in the stories and is having so much fun reading them!

5.0 out of 5 stars There is a Mummy on the Loose!
Reviewed in the United States on October 21, 2015

This is the first chapter book in an entire series that I have read, this is book number six. I can tell from this one that the books are stand alone but do refer to previous books and events of the characters.

I love a good mystery type book and I know that any budding sleuth is going to love this one. The book is aimed at first through third-grade students. It is written in such a way to help emerging students read what they like but to read well.

I like the illustrations are on every page but only enhance the reading and not clutter the pages. I also like that the book is written in bolder type so that children can see clearly the words that are written on the pages. A unique feature of the book is that it is totally in black and white which gives the whole idea of a "notebook." Did I happen to mention that the author is also the illustrator?

The characters themselves are a small group with quirky mannerism. They have formed this small club-like that seeks out monsters. The "notebook" keeps their thought processes as well as monsters they find in kid-like drawings and information.

All in all, I loved this book and cannot wait to get my hands on more of this series.

5 stars!

This is a wonderful series of books, Well written and illustrated.
Chapters are a perfect length to keep attention.

Follow Alexander Bopp on a journey battling monsters in his new home town as he meets a few new friends and teams up with them to save his school and town.
Each book can be standalone, but sometimes they pull from previous stories.

I ordered these books for my son for Christmas. They arrived well packaged and undamaged. Fast shipping which was nice. He loves these books! I have not read them but our son read one to my husband and he said they were really fun books. Our son is 9 and hates to read! He is an excellent reader but would rather play video games all day if we would let him. For him to ask for the whole set and to see him re-reading the ones from school tells me they must be pretty awesome books.

My second grader eats this series for breakfast! We have to force him to slow down reading these. Highly recommend if you have a 2nd grade boy who you want to get excited about reading! (Our public school library carries the series, so I know it’s not total junk too.)

5.0 out of 5 stars Our kids LOVE Notebook of Doom book series
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 31, 2020
Verified Purchase
We read a different Scholastic books series first and needed another good "first chapter" series with lots of pictures to keep their attention.
They LOVE the characters and guessing who is the baddie and/or what could happen next.
Whenever possible we use the Kindle edition and broadcast it to our TV via our Amazon Firebox (via wireless projection) so that everyone can see the text and the pictures. Unfortunately not all the books are available for Amazon Kindle, so some books we had to buy as hard paper and we are running out of space in our bookshelves as we have sooo many books, so we prefer electronic copies. Electronic copies also allow us to share it onto their Amazon Fire tablets for kids.
Again, LOVED by all of our kids and we have different ages and grasp of the world. It has gone so far, that our boys have us print out the monsters, trace them and then colour them in!
