Editorial Reviews:

Charlie McButton likes computer games so much, he never plays with anything else. When a thunderstorm knocks out the electricity, his tech empire comes tumbling down, and his whole world loses power. Charlie needs batteries—FAST! But the only triple- A’s he can find are in his little sister’s talking doll. Will he resort to desperate measures and cause his sister to have a meltdown of her own? Or will he snap out of his computer craze long enough to realize his sister might be fun, even if she doesn’t come with batteries? Collins and Lester team up for a hilarious and timely tale that will crack up young computer addicts and those who love them!

Summary: A Rhythmic, Fun Read!
Comment: I read this book with a class of kindergarten-aged children. They repeatedly ask to read and re-read Charlie McButton, and enjoy it every time. The rhythmic quality of the book makes it fun to read and easy for the children to remember what is going to happen next. The children relate amazingly well to Charlie McButton and both his dilemma (the power went out and he can't play video games) and the way that Charlie interacts with his little sister (first with disdain, then with a cute and playful understanding).

Summary: When Charlie McButton Lost Power
Comment: I read When Charlie McButton Lost Power by Suzanne Collins. I would recommend this book because in the book Charlie lost power and he went crazy. It was very funny. In the book I read "He looked left ,he looked right, his heart filled with dread. The TV, lights, and his clock were all dead." This helped convince me that it was a good book.
