This is the greatest book i have ever read.It's an awsome book.Actually not as best as the "Anastasia Krupnik".The book "Frindle" is better than that so I'm changing from 5 stars to 3 because 2 books are already better than your book.But I love the movie.BBBBBBBBBYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
