Reader: This book is so funny. I really enjoyed the comical aspect of the authors writing. Throughout this novel Johnny has some very intense emotions and the author portrays that in a very clever way. Also, the illustrations here and their throughout the book really make the book lively and fun to read.

The comical aspects of this book would make the science behind germs more fun and it would really help children remember the book and the unit being taught.
