Thanks to the public library, I was finally able to find out what people were talking about when they squeed about Bruno & Boots. Of course, soon after the fickle library gods betrayed me: only the first book is available, which is a TRAGEDY, because this series is clearly great, funny and delightful and truly squee-worthy.

Bruno and Boots are mischievous but well meaning. They cause their headmaster endless upset, and after a particularly prodigious series of pranks, he separates them.

This is a fun story full of light-hearted hijinks, and I’m just sad my son would absolutely hate it. (He doesn’t like to read about people getting into trouble, alas.) I’ve been wanting to read this for years — I’ve read some great fan fiction set in the universe — and I’m so glad this one, at least, is finally in ebook form.
