A fun tale

A hilarious series of events makes PIPER REED: THE GREAT GYPSY a fun read. Neal Layton's THE MAMMOTH ACADEMY tells of Oscar and his sister, beginning their first year at Mammoth Academy. Oscar isn't fond of schoolwork but he loves outdoor sports and is friends with Fox, until a kitchen theft involves him in a difficult investigation of possible human thieves. A fun tale evolves.

mammoth review

It is very good because I like the part where Oscar and the fox meet the humans and then the part where the humans think Oscar and the fox are a four-eyed monster. It is a very funny book. I love the maps and the illustrations.
