There's no one else like Bingo Brown! September 14, 2000 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I read this book more than 10 years ago in elementary school. It was such a memorable experience that I bought a copy of it recently. Its quite charming - funny and serious at times. Bingo Brown reminds me of one of those kids from the Francois Traffaut film Argent de poche (Small Change). I would recommend it for 4th-6th graders and to those grown-ups who remember that they were children first.
I have a schoolgirl crush on Bingo Brown February 9, 2000 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
Bingo writes that he falls in love with three girls in one day! That gets me. Better yet: he falls in love with one (Melissa, by far the most charismatic of the three) because in an assignment she says she wants to be a scientist by day and a rock star by night. I don't know about you, but that gives me new career aspirations. I love everything Bingo does. He wears a "Mozart Rocks" shirt. He gets freaked out by the neighbor's misty eyed poodle. He misconstrues his mother's sarcasm and starts a schoolwide rebellion. He writes many, many burning questions. This is a witty, emotional book, the best of the Bingo Brown series. Read it to a kid, or just read it for a fun, light read.
