The most important thing to know about this book is a warning about what comes later in the series. This is yet another example of what we are seeing more and more, where and author starts a series and then somewhere down the road in another title introduces a new aspect of concerning content, in this case a non-biblical view of sexuality and/or gender. In this series, eventually we see a comment by an adult to their child to go ask their ‘other mom’ about something. This is during a party and the young reader is left to wonder if this is the case of a step-mom or the case of a gay relationship. Then in an even later title, the mystery is revealed and we are told with great excitement from the child that the two moms are getting marries (multiple issues with this statement obviously).

Even beyond this main area of concern, in this very short title there is enough negative content and an almost complete absence of ‘good’ content, making this an easy choice to avoid. The worst of the characters is grumpy, very rude (e.g., saying ‘boys are stupid’) and immoral (says ‘sorry’, but we see a thought bubble saying, ‘sorry you couldn’t take a joke’). Another character similarly shows no responsibility as they say, ‘sheesh, I was only joking’. This type of internal dialog is something Christian parents should work hard to eliminate in our children, as God examines the heart, so content like this is certainly something to avoid.

There is also a stretch of the book where one kid goes around doing a survey asking everyone if they like ‘farts’ or ice cream more. This is repeated multiple times.
