review 1: As a teacher I know that one thing my students hate is vocabulary. This book is the perfect answer. It shows them that vocabulary doesn't have to be boring. It can actually be fun. Aldo is given a second sketch book from his Grandma Goosy. He begins to fill it with his drawings, adventures and most importantly to me his fabulous "B" vocabulary words. In this story Aldo and his best friendJack find a diamond ring in the gutter while playing kick the rock. Aldo throws it back because he thinks it is fake. Jack retrieves it. Then Aldo loses it and learns it is real. Now he is on a mission to find the ring. I didn't read the first book in the series "Artsy Fartsy". I will however purchase the first one and the next one "Cahoots". I know the perfect students to rec... moreommend this book to. This is a book that kids who like "Diary of a Wimpy Kid" will enjoy.
review 2: Really enjoying this new series. I think it the perfect MG book. I enjoy Aldo and think several of my boys will connect with him. In this book Aldo and his friend, Jack, find a diamond ring. Aldo loses it by accident only to find out it's real and has a $1000 reward to the person who finds it. So begins their search for the ring. Once again there are Aldo's drawings and journal entries detailing the story. The last book had a glossary of "A" words in the back. This one has a glossary of the great "B" words Aldo learns. A fun read. less
