I just love Bingo Brown. Although this is a juvenile chapter book, I, a 31 year old adult found myself laughing aloud on several occasions. Bingo continues his relationship with Melissa; his main conflict comes when he has to buy her a Christmas gift. What should he get her? What's she getting him? How to convey the depths of his emotion on only $3? So funny. Also, Bingo's mom is having a baby, so there are Burning Questions about Big Brotherhood to contend with as well.
Seriously, Bingo is so adorable and genuine and hilarious. Everyone needs to read these books. I am so glad I wasn't disappointed as I so often am when re-reading much-loved books from my childhood. ( )
