Adventures with Waffles Hardcover – May 12, 2015

Eleven-year old immediately began reading it and got through it in three days, loved it so much. Beautifully written - the adults in the house are reading it now :)

Wow! I have never enjoyed a book as much as this before. It seemed almost every page of dialogue was just a child’s adventure dialogue of genuine thoughts on life as a child.It is like you’re there and seeing all the fun things the characters get into and there are times you laugh and cry as other reviewers have mentioned. It is such a short book, but each page holds a chuckle because of the candid perspective of the main character’s happenings.I will say, I don’t buy books very often. We read this as a part of Sarah McKenzie’s book club and got it from the library. We HAD to keep it! So we bought it here and tried to think of anyone else our family could share it with. The only sad thing is that it’s new, so not enough people have heard of it and we had to wait a while to get it from an interlibrary loan to boot!Can’t say enough fun things about this book!

My kids laughed so much while I read this to them. Very cute book with no bad content!

This beautiful book made me cry twice! Maria Parr is a wonderful writer and I would never hesitate to read another of her books. She is realistic enough to make fake things seem real.

This story was hilarious and serious and sad and happy. It was engaging even for my youngest (5 years). I enjoyed it too. However, the portion about the Jesus picture was pretty superstitious. It comes up a few times in the story and I just wish it wasn't there or was only a brief mention. But still, a fun read aloud for the family.

A sweet book read aloud to kindergartner, 3rd and 4th grader. We all loved it. Moves quickly through the story. A few parts might a smidge intense for a sensitive kiddo but I loved it as an adult and hope to find more from this author.

Read this out loud with my 12-year old son after having it recommended by a friend. It was a quick and easy read for his level and was not his genre but he loved it! We laughed often and I cried several times…it was a sweet and touching story. Definitely one of my personal favorite children’s books. Highly recommend.

I read this with my 6 year old son and we laughed out loud several times. It was such a great book and we were bummed to finish it, but my son has already asked to read it again.

Captured the imagination of my daughter 9 who loved it and wishes that it hadn't ended

Purchased book for my daughter and arrived really quick.
