Review

The Riot Brothers series is funny, cunning and always respectful. Their daily mission and pursuit of games is delightful as well as humorous. Fans of Captain Underpants will laugh and grin as they read or are read to from the pages of The Riot Brothers; Drooling and Dangerous. The loving relationship between the brothers is refreshing as is the lack of technology. Using their imagination these boys go outdoors to play and are capable of having fun without high tech or expensive toys.

The simple line drawn illustrations compliment the text and the large print makes this series a perfect match for early readers who are ready for chapter books. School and public libraries will want to add this series to their early reader collections. These books however will be more popular with students then their Mothers.

Overall Book Score: good
