Twelve-year-old underachiever Rob has better things to do than read. His parents give him lots of books but most of them just end up in the messy pile of junk he keeps locked in his closet that once doubled as a makeshift science laboratory. One day, Rob hears weird sounds coming from behind his closet door and discovers a funny little creature that seems to be a cross between two characters from books he's tried to ignore. He names him Wonkenstein.

Keeping track of "Wonk" is hard work. But with help from friends and a little off-the-wall magic, Rob and Wonkenstein's crazy adventures set the stage for great laughs . . . and Rob might even read some good books along the way.

I think this book was funny because it always has the robot that didn't realy talk so it was hard to understand him.He also was really funny.

I reccomend this book to people who like mysterieres! This book is also funny with pranks and giggles! This is a book that can inspirer us kids to get into reading.

I liked how the author mixed two different genres together to make a wonderful story. I loved it! I cant wait to read the next book. Hope you love this book too.

so funny it made me laugh hahahahaha

I love the hilarious imagination! I wish a creature could help me out with my troubles, so anyway I read this for reading olympics im in 5th grade and thought it would suck but it was good! I would suggest this for younger kids.

This book is hilarious. It is about Rob and he is a average kid he is smart and one day he hears a weird sound coming from his closet until BAM out comes Wonkenstein. Wonkenstein so silly and hilarious but you can find out more if you read the book!!
