I Left My Sneakers in Dimension X

Have you ever been transported to another dimension? Do you know what it feels like to be shoved into a forty foot monsters ear and eat kispa-dinka evernight? If not, then i suggest you read this book to find out more about this crazy life. During his adventures, Rod and his bratty cousin elspet are captured by smorkus flinders, a giant alien seeking revenge on Rods alien friends. When rod is reunited with his friends in dimension X, they face a whole new problem. How to get out. Throughout their encounters they meet up with crazy shapeshifters, a ting wongovia, and many other strange things. In the end Rod is enlarged and put up in a battle againse Smorkus Flinders and wins. He then finds out that the reason his dad had left them is because he was an alien. This book is a very good book, but an easy read. it is wild, wacky , and witty. it is well written and should be enjoyed by children of all ages. The first thing i liked about this book was the overall obscurity and wackiness of the settings and characters. I mean, really, whos ever heard of a ting wongovia? It was characters like these that brought the imaginative aspect to the book. This book really provokes your mind to really think about what some of the things might look like and what it must be like to live there. This as a whole is what makes this book intersting. Another thing that pleased me while reading this book was the vocabulary that was used to describe the scenes shown. While the settings were vivid, the vocabulary really helped bring alot of the settings to life almost.For example, the author used almost child-like vocabulary to describe this part of dimension X: "The sky looked like boiling purple water, the ground like a pot of overcooked macaroni." Sentences like these are peppered throughout the book, and really bring it to life. The third and final thing that amused me about this book is the sheer simplicity, but also very complex plotline to the story. The book goes from very high points to very low points, and ends with a wonderful climax and a resolution with a big twist. This book is an easy read, so i dont reccomend it highly for adults, but the average high elementary through middle school age will enjoy its childish charm. Overall, "I Left My Sneakers In Dimension X" by Bruce Coville is an intersting read, full of surprises, wackiness, and over cooked macaroni. This book should be enjoyed by children of all ages.

With summer here, Rod doesn't think anything could be as strange as his adventure with the aliens of the Galactic Patrol, nor as bad as having his bratty cousin Elspeth stay at his house for two weeks. But something can be as bad. When Rod and Elspeth take a walk, a huge giant named Smorkus Flinders kidnaps them to Dimension X. In this exciting book, find out what it's like to be a krevlik, fight a giant, and learn that your father is an alien.

This takes you to an adventure in demension X and has a lot of wacky and scary parts and some parts that are mixed, like wene Elspheth Rods anoying little cousine is olmost eaten by Smorkus Flingers fat companion
