Dirty Bertie: Monster - A Review

 

Monster! by Alan MacDonald
My rating: 1 of 5 stars

Too gross.
Only the first story about the school fair was my favourite.
Too sensitive for gross subjects in this book, stopping almost immediately.

So hysterical as always.
Read it thanks to the Dirty Bertie Horror book I read.

Dirty Bertie: Horror: A Review

 

Horror! by Alan MacDonald
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Read it for a little while, but found some similarities to Horrid Henry's Haunted House.
Made me want to read a Horrid Henry book at bedtime instead.
Still highly fun to read though.

Dirty Bertie: Horror: Recognize Some Slimy Similarities?

Early this morning when I was reading the Dirty Bertie book Horror, I started recognising something. No, it's not that I want some buttery popcorn and a strawberry slushy for breakfast, because we haven't got the equipment and recipes to do so.

It's just that this first story in the book shares some similarities with both the first and last stories in Horrid Henry's Haunted House. Here are four main reasons why this story is too similar to the Horrid Henry stories 'Comfy Black Chair' and 'Minds His Manners'. Two for each one, mind.

At number four, both Horror and Comfy Black Chair feature the main characters of both stories wanting to watch their own stuff while somebody else wants to watch something babyish and soppy. For Henry and Bertie, it's movies featuring monsters or a showing of Mutant Max or Rapper Zapper, while for Peter, Gran and Reg, it's Daffy & Her Dancing Daisies, or Manners With Maggie, or Me, You & Bonzo Too. Both Bertie and Henry hate such sloppy films and series.

At number three, both stories feature the intense - but somehow not too intense - subject of being misled into watching another film. For Bertie, he wants to see Return Of The Blob Thing but is tricked by Gran and her new boyfriend Reg into watching Bonzo, while Peter always steals Henry's position in the Comfy Black Chair when he wants to watch Gross Out and other stuff Peter finds revolting. It's all about taking control, according to both Henry and Bertie at least.

Number two sees what went on in my head while I was reading Horror. Images of the climactic, chaotic scene where the Goo Shooter Gang raid Manners With Maggie in Horrid Henry Minds His Manners transformed into the woman trying to get into the car from Horror running into the film and the Blob thing trying to eat them while Bertie and the audience at the cinema fire Goo Shooters at them.

And number one...well, I think it's ultra mega super easy.

I'm going to have to read a Horrid Henry book.

All thanks to Gran and her boyfriend Reg.

I think it might be Krazy Ketchup...if I have it, actually.

Dirty Bertie: Jackpot! A Review

 

Jackpot! by Alan MacDonald
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Imagine....Bertie is rich!
Well, Gran only had twenty pounds, and any other time in the world, Bertie begged her for a million. My favourite part of the first chapter is Bertie looking around the luxury toy department, and going crazy driving around the shop in a Ferrari.
Perfect for any fan of Horrid Henry or somethingorrather.

Dirty Bertie: Fame! A Review

Fame! by Alan MacDonald
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Did not read due to issues with myself.
However, Dirty Bertie is really funny, and the first story in this book is a true favourite of mine - he finally gets a bath!
A very hysterical read, would recommend for younger readers.
