Amulet by Kizu Kibushi do u like action dis book is for u
I would recommend The Plant That Ate Dirty Socks Goes Hollywood. It’s about Michael and Norman making a movie while Arnold Snickersnacker is making The Revenge of the Swamp Monster. This is a funny book because one line said, “creepy rubber heads with horrible faces.”
Fluffy and Stanley are sock eating plants. They live with Michael and Norman. Also in the book Fluffy, Stanley, Michael, Norman, Mom, and Dad really went to Hollywood.
Before they really went to Hollywood, Margo, Mrs. Smith’s dog got lost. Margo had a really wild adventure. After they found the dog, they couldn’t walk back so they waited for the plant truck.
During those times they were watching Arnold Snickersnacker making the rest of the movie.
People were watching Michael, Norman, and Bob’s movie afterwards. And on the movie theatre they watched The Revenge of the Swamp Monster. People will like this book because they really went to Hollywood.
#i like your book review
A plant named Fluffy sounds cool!
