Great book

There is never a boring moment in the story. It is also very funny.

Phillip

Joey pigza book #3

This book was fantastic, it had a lot of emotion and it described all of Joey's feelings. Joey went from his old wired self to a normal boy. Joey's grandmother died at the end of the book and Joey did everything correctly. I totally understand the book "What did Joey Pigza do". I have a wired friend and my grandma also died. I would recommend this book to people who like funny books.

Joey Pigza review

Uh I thought this book was great, it tied in well with the first Joey Pigza, I recommend this book for any one that has a "free book project" or if they want to relax, or just get some laughs. Its a great " pick up and go book"

Confusing book

This book is probably the best I've ever read. It was quite confusing, but I enjoyed it!
