The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy By Douglas Adams

It's a funny story, how I found out about The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. I was sitting at a rest stop (in Delaware!) and I asked my mom a question that she didn't know the answer to. She told me the answer was "42" (Yes that was a very odd answer). Then she started to tell me about The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams. Their are five books in the series. Book 1: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Book 2: The Restaurant at the End of the Universe. Book 3: Life, the Universe and Everything. Book 4: So Long, and Thanks for all the Fish. Book 5: Young Zaphod Plays it Safe.

The book is laugh out loud funny. I wanted to read almost every other line out loud to someone because it was so funny. One of my favorite jokes is that humans are only the third most intelligent species in the galaxy. The most intelligent species is mice, followed by dolphins, and then us. The whole book is about a man named Arthur Dent who gets lifted off of Earth (right before it explodes) by his good friend Ford Perfect. Ford is really an alien from Belelgeuse (not from Guildford like he told Arthur before) which is some weird spot in the universe. If I were to rate this book on a funniness scale from 1-10 I would give it an 11.

I think my favorite character is Trillian. Trillian is a human who (randomly) got picked up by Zaphod Beetlebrox (President of the Universe) for no apparent reason and now she is his girlfriend. What I find funny is that Arthur tried to "pick her up" at a party, when Zaphod blew up the place and unexpectedly picked up Trillian. The two things she managed to keep from Earth were two white mice that she cherished, because they were the only things that she managed to save from her home.

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is a very funny book and I hope you love this book as much as I did!

How to Grow up and Rule the World by Vordak the Incomprehensible

How to Grow up and Rule the World

It's a wonderfully evil genius written non-wimpy kid reading simply genius book. In this guide you will not only find out how to grow up and rule the world, but you will also learn what minions to use, and what diabolically evil plans already failed (Caution do not use for your own plans). As Vordak says "it will let a little piece of pond scum like your self to one day GROW UP AN RULE THE WORLD. MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!"

I liked this book a lot because of the interaction between Vordak and "you". In the beginning he says that he was so smart that he will ask your questions for you. My favorite chapter is the   Superhero chapter. I laughed at the letter to the publisher that Vordak wrote, It said "Caution Do NOT read chapter if you don't rule the world". It was supposed to be at the beginning of the You Rule the World What Now? chapter.

Now I will go to bed. MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!! ( Vordak the Incomprehensible Taught me that )
