Written by kids, for kids!
The young Bacon brothers have ingeniously conceived an irreverent, hilarious guide that shows students how to avoid the mandated 20 minutes of reading per day. Sparse text and minimal illustrations make this book perfect for graphic format fans.
Don't be put off by the title — teachers have the last laugh. The Bacon brothers taunt on the final page, “Ha! Caught you reading,” and your reluctant and struggling readers will indeed have finished a book without even thinking about it. Grades K–5. By Henry and Arthur Bacon. Illustrated by Johanna Hantel. 20 pp. Hardcover. ISBN 978-1-60213-025-8 2008.
