  8. What happens when 6 brothers are on a road trip,in small car, and a cat pukes.
    Knuckle head by jon scieszka is the wierdest,carzest,and most hilarious book ever.
    I would reccomend this book to anyone 5 grade and up.this book will teach you how to take care of 5 brothers. Knuckle head RULES.this book rules because of this cool phrase "dont breath my air."IF you want SWORD FIGHT without geting hurt read this book.

  9. "Don't breathe my air!" What does it mean? How would you use it? You'll have to read Jon Scieszka's Knucklehead to find out!
    Jon Scieszka's Knucklehead ia a great source of humor that will leave you hanging!
    Three reasons I'd recommend this book are because of "Don't breathe my air" which is a great saying to annoy your family.
    "Sword Fightining," what does it mean how do you fight?
    "Circle Of Death" is a circle of throw up why a circle? Read to find out.
    The type of reader has to be mature and needs to also hae a sense of humor!
    Read Knucklehead to find out all about this book and it's humors.

    I would reccommend this book because it is a type of read that readers can relate to, it's exciting and you can't stop reading once you pick it up.

    A mature reader, in a bout 5th or 6th grade, would enjoy this book because there are a bunch of scenes that are good and humorous for an audience that age. Knuckelhead is a very humorous and a great book.

  25. What would happen if you swore to a nun? The book "Knucklehead" by Jon Scieszka is funny because of all the things these kids have done. I would recommend this book because it is so funny, I was laughing through the whole book. Another reason is that these kids make up these new slangs like "Don't breathe my air" and stuff like that. The last reason is that I will be mature about reading it and handle it. I would say this is a mature reader and a curious reader would enjoy this book.

  26. HAve you ever read Knucklehead? It is the best book ever! Would you like to be in a car with 6 brothers throwing up> Do you know the book Knucklehead by Jon Scieszka ? That book is so funny. These 6 little evil boys do some rotten stuff to the babysitter. I would recommend this book to a 5th grader because it is so funny. It is inappropriate for kids under 4th grade. I think in order for people to read this book they have to be mature about it and not have a big mouth.

  27. What did kids do before computers and TV? The book Knucklehead is funny but it shouldn't be read to people under 5th grade. Jon Scieszka's book is so funny, especially when the 6 brothers were in a crammed car and the cat started to barf. There was sword-fighting and explosions and schemes and violence. A famous quote was "stop breathing my air." This book is an awesome book because it is funny and entertaining. This book has explosions and interesting dialogue. This book should not be read to kids under 5th grade. This book as stuff should not try this at home. A person who looking for a laugh.

  28. Have you ever swore at God's wife? Knucklehead by Jon Sckieszka is a hilarious book that left me wanting to read more. In this book the boys have "sword fights", "puking cats", and explosives. I think this book should only be read by mature kids grade 5 and up.

  29. Did you know some people swear at nun's?These people go to Catholic school. Nuns are married to god.So dont be shoked when you swear at a nun and nyou get hit bus and struck by lighting. In the book Knucklhead by Jon Scieszka,the six boys do somthing you should never do "SORD FIGHT".At the end everone yelled "MOM"!Three reasons I would recommend this book is one is if you find a green thing in the toaster its an army man . Also there is a puking cat in the car with six boys. Lastnever do what the boys did to the heater or you will be cold for th erest of the winter.This book made me laph until someone asked meif i was ok people who love funny books should read this book only fith grade an dup should read this book

  37. Have you ever met a Knuclehaed? Knuclehaed by Jon Scieszka kept me laughing through every chapter between the sword fights, puking, games, holy swearing, sayings, and explosives. This book will blow your mind off literly there are explosives everywhere so beware. You can read this book 90 times and never get old of it! It is suspensful and surprising till the end. you will want to try some of these stunts in this book but they are not to be duplacated at all. Children under the age of 7 should not read this book alone! To read this book you have to have a sense of humar, a big intension spand, explosives and the book. Seriously if you don't have the book you can't read it!
