Review 

It is an interesting story. It is pretty new to me that the book uses a novel on the chapters that happen in the upper world and cartoon for chapters happen in the Underwhere. It clearly separates two worlds. Reluctant readers would be attracting to this type of books. I like the fact that the author incorporates some historical events into the story with some twists. It helps inspire readers to read books about those events.  It should be a funny story, but I just do not quite understand its sense of humor. Young tweens would love this kind of humor. It is recommendable title.
