Now, Amanda is also another wonderful character that acts as Kyle's sidekick. For most of the part, you'll get to see freehand fighting, a hundred or so things breaking, Mr. Mumbles chasing Kyle and Amanda who fail to escape each and every time. What really freaked me out was the repaired condition of Kyle's home where a big battlestar broke out.
I can't really say much because the book doesn't cover a lot of time frame. I really praise the book for putting facts and things in front of the reader and explaining each and every bit right from the beginning and blending some funny, dark and insane characters. Mumbles was the most boring part, he is just some imaginaries zombie like creature with the purpose to hunt down Kyle just because he stopped being a friend? You're currently at the bottom of my evil antagonists in books list.
The swimming pool storyline and it's connection to the past was delightful as well as a bit shaky to read. I really liked the way My.
Barry Hutchinson has crafted the story but he just made one big mistake- a dull, boring, ruthless villain. Otherwise, this is a perfect hit. I wish it detected more fan-base. I'm pretty excited to pick up the next book in the series. In the end, there'll still be some burning questions and for that I'll need to read Raggy Maggie. A fantastic protagonist with a haunting past and a yet more terrifying future.
Let's see what happens, fingers crossed. The chapter titles and the font style is really freaky. Nice Reading! Sep 22, Seitenhain rated it really liked it. Oh Mann, ist das spannend! Mumbles aus Kindertagen wieder auf. Einziges Problem: Mr. Mumbles will jetzt nicht mehr spielen, sondern Rache, weil Kyle ihn im Laufe der Jahre vergessen hat! Wie unfair!

Good first entry. A book that may appeal to all ages. Not sure, though, if this is YA or Children's Lit. Parents may wish to be cautious about recommending this to children below middle-school.

Feb 15, Ms. Yingling rated it really liked it. We start this book with Armageddon. Remember John Wilson's dictum that books for boys should have an explosion early on? The end of the world works, too. So what's going on with Kyle?
He's spending Christmas with his single mother and grandmother, but when he goes to his room, he hears a horrible scratching on the ceiling. Nothing but mice, right? It's Mr. Mumbles, his imaginary friend, who is back and not happy.
In between spine chilling descriptions of feeling watched and stalked and pul We start this book with Armageddon. In between spine chilling descriptions of feeling watched and stalked and pulse pounding chase scenes, we find out that Mr. Mumbles, the once benign friend who helped Kyle work through some speech problems, has morphed into a huge, angry demon with sewn-shut, festing mouth and the taste for blood. Should not have read this just before bed. With the help of the enigmatic Ameena, Kyle destroys Mr.
Mumbles, but his allies from the Darkest Corners are slathering at the threshold, waiting to attack in book two, Raggy Maggie. Strengths: Perfect for my middle schoolers who want scary books. I've tried to write scary scenes of people being chased, and it's not easy. This was a taut novel that also included intriguing mysteries. Is Kyle's father really his mother's imaginary friend?
I want to know. Weaknesses: Not available in the US!!!!! HarperCollins, what are you thinking? Yes, it's possible to obtain UK published books for my library, but usually cost prohibitive. Jul 30, Caroline rated it liked it. After a slow start this book became pretty good in the end, although suffering from being too predictable.
But hey, it's a children's book, what did you expect? May appear to be the weakest book in the series, but still worth a read. Although I have to mention that I really like the humour in it and the characters are very lovely and well created. If you're looking for a book to scare the eff out of your kids, this should go on your shopping list.
Oct 05, Wallace Dempster rated it really liked it. Mr Mumbles was a fantastic book which was at parts quite scary. The book is very absorbing and you can't put it as you want to see what is going to happen. View Mr. Mumbles' gallery here! Dan Vs. Wiki Explore. Recent blog posts Forum Maintenance.

Universal Conquest Wiki. Dan then tries to get Mumbles back how he can. Mumbles", it isn't a male. Its a female cat, as revealed by an old man in "Dan Vs Art". Is a very cute caracter. It always tries to help Dan in any way. She definitely deserves more attention. And this show in general, of course. Its a simple caracter that's done right in my opinion.
It doesn't have a dramatic story that we have to be aware of and it doesn't have a complicated personalit to understand.
