    About this audiobook

    Logan and his friend Benedict run into the wrong guy at the library--literally. When Logan slams into the reference guy in the basement and gives him a little lip, Logan gets punished, really and truly punished. He has three days to complete three tasks before Professor Wordsworth will lift the magical punishment that keeps getting Logan in even more trouble.

      Punished by David Lubar teaches second and third graders about certain kinds of words like puns, anagrams, and oxymorons. It would be best used in a classroom as a story time book in conjunction with some other vocabulary building exercises.The book opens with Logan getting in trouble with a reference librarian named Prof. Wordsworth. Grumpy Wordsworth puts a curse on Logan and the only way to undo it is to find seven examples of specific words, for a total of twenty-one, but Logan only has a limited amount of time to accomplish the task.Why did the person setting the curse have to be a reference librarian? Reference librarians don't go around cursing wayward patrons. Yes, they're about educating patrons but doing so in such a scary and horrendous way is anti-librarian. That disconnect really took away from my enjoyment of the book.

      This book was recommended to me by 5th grade students. I just love it when my students recommend books for me to read.This is great book to teach students about word plays. It is an excellent read-a-loud that can be followed up with activities allowing the students to create their own puns, anagrams, oxymorons, and palindromes. WOW! What a fun lesson.Teachers will enjoy the teachable moments and students will enjoy the humor.Recommended for Grades 3 and up (though it might work well as a read-aloud to 2nd graders. They will find the word play funny, even if they don't quite understand it all.)

      This books is a good example of fantasy/realistic fiction. It is a good example of fantasy because it involves magic and a spell that could not happen in real life. However, it is also a good example of realistic fiction, because it takes place in everyday settings. The reader can easily put themselves in the place of the main character.Stars: SettingAge: Intermediate

      I really don't think the publishers know what they were doing. I mean, for crying out loud, they spelled the almost main character's name wrong! However, this book would probably be good for some teacher to read aloud because it teaches about oxymorons, anagrams, palindromes, and things of that nature. I wouldn't tell anyone to read this in spare time if they want to read a book. I don't know anyone who enjoys reading 96 pages of non-detailed, and forgive me for this last comment, junk.
    • 4/5
      This book does exactly what it sets out to do: provide lots of laughs and tell a fun tale. It also provides some great English grammar lessons without ever seeming didactic.
