A Winner!!
This is another DK reader that not only held the interest of my 9 yr old son but captivated him as well. Well written and the pictures are fantastic. If you have a son that only likes video games and is a gamer,but thinks reading is boring buy this book with MicroMonsters(dk) They will be enthralled!!! Both books he could NOT put down until he finished them!
