Excellent experience September 28, 2007
This book was delivered in just the condition that had been advertised (in this case excellent condition) and the shipping was excellent. I would definitely use this seller again.

My 4th Grade son has read most of the Hank Zipzer series and found them to be "ok" -- funny and reasonably well written, but somehow not completely engaging for him. I found some of the writing to be a little formulaic. Still and all, I would recommend you give this series a try if you're looking for something new. My boy is a little finicky, and he liked these well enough.
Another Gem from Henry! June 17, 2006

I am an elementary teacher who just wrapped up third grade. I read the Hank Zipzer series aloud to my class this year and they all agreed this was their favorite. At one point, we were laughing so loud that a colleage stuck her head in the classroom to make sure we were okay. All of these books kept the kids interested, made them laugh, and got many of them reading them independently after I had read it to them! One of our class catch phrases this year was, in the words of Frankie, "right, and my name is Bernice." Many of my students could relate to Hank's learning challenges and felt better knowing it was "okay" to struggle! Hats off to Henry Winkler and Hank!
One of the best books I've read! May 19, 2005

The best book I've ever read is "Holy Enchilada". It is about a boy named Hank Zipzer and his school having a foreign exchange student from Japan to come to their school for a few days. So everyone decides to make the school look fancy for him. The kid needs somewhere to stay so Hank decides to let him stay at his house. The first night that he stays, they don't have anything to do so they start to make enchiladas for the Multi-Cultural Food Days at school. Hank starts to have trouble reading the recipe for how much zing to put in the enchiladas, and thinks he put to much in them, and everything gets worse from there. I
really liked this book because I can relate to the character and I understand him well. I would recommend this book to fourth graders and up.
Every thing but bad April 22, 2005
This book Holy Enchilada is about this boy named
Hank Zipper. He has a learning challange called dyslexia.
He is very bad at spelling and math but mostly spelling.
In this book Heritage day is coming up. Hank desides to make enchiladas with his two best friends Frankie and Ashley.
When it comes time to make the recipe, he could not read the fraction 1/3tbls for chillie powder. So he guesses that it
said 3 1/3tbls. Uh oh what is Hank going to do now...
I would definataly recommend this book to anyone that loves
humor.
