- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I didn’t listen to this file, but the following review is based on the actual book, which I read in its paper copy version:
It wasn’t as good as I had hoped. Since it was mentioned in “Escape From Mr. Lemoncello’s Library” by Chris Grabenstein, I guess I was expecting something up to scratch with that masterpiece. This book didn’t live up to my expectations. I’m not saying that it was terrible, but it’s not one I’d necessarily recommend to anyone above the 5th grade. It was more elementary than I was hoping. - Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5This was not Evan mr. lemonshellos library that was the won I was looking for that was the worst
