My 10 year old son loves Hank Zipzer, I do too. This book is great, very funny and so real you could just imagine your child as Hank. This book is one of our favorites in the series. They are all wonderful books, very entertaining and funny for both children and adults. My son really relates to Hank he has similar issues with reading and writing (Dyslexia), so for him the books are such a great moral boost. These books are written easy enough for my son to read, but yet so entertaining they do not seem too young for a 10 year old. We love them so much we bought a small set for my son's classroom and the school library. This is a series most boy's will relate too!
