Punished - by David Lubar

This is a pretty punny book.  That's a dumb joke, right?  Actually, it's a pun, and that's what this book is full of.  It's the story of a boy who bumps into a grumpy old guy in the library, and the guy puts a spell on the kid so he can only talk in puns.  The kid has to go on some missions in order to find the cure for the curse.

It's a pretty interesting story, especially for people who like playing with words and language (like me).  You'll learn a little, and will probably enjoy the short, interesting story.  However, I greatly prefer this author's other books, such as Flip, Invasion of the Road Weenies, and True Talents.  In other words, while this is a good story, it's not the author's best work.  Read it anyway, and see what YOU think!
