My Life as a Gamer (The My Life series, 5)

My 9 year old has really enjoyed this book. Sometimes getting a boy who loves his video games to read can sometimes be a bit of a challenge. This book has really captured my son’s attention.

This book has my son excited about reading!

For my grandson for Valentines. He will enjoy it I’m sure.

My fourth grader enjoys reading it. This is a great book for (3rd, 4th, 5th, & 6th graders). Print is as always large and as usual few new vocabulary introduced in the book, and stick figures drawing on the side of each page. I would say if you are new to this series start with the first book. Anyway, without giving away too much plot I was say nothing major happens with the Monkey or the Dog, and I think most fans of the book wants to know more about the pets. I wish this book had more story line that reflects on dog's health, but it didn't. Derek is having fun with his new adventure each Saturdays, and he learns an important lesson on keeping secrets and important of keeping information confidential especially if signed and agreed upon it. His mom is still busy working next door at her clinic and dad is home a lot.IT was a good read, and the only reason I didn't give five stars because the story could have developed more on the suspense on who leaked the information from the gaming company, or on Derek's dad's job hunt, etc. I hope there will be more books coming in this series.

My son is 9, in 3rd grade, and struggles a little with reading fluency, but he loved this book. He read it all in about a week and could easily understand the story. Highly recommended for boys and girls who love video games and their parents who just want them to read.

School for my grandson

My 10 year old son really liked this book and he only really reads because he has to for homework lol but this one he actually read on his own time

Catchy title! I bought this book hoping it would inspire my kid to read. It worked. He really enjoys it. This book appropriate for a 5th/6th grade level kid.
