This book was disappointing on every level. The language was crude and inappropriate. I enjoy early chapter books and middle grade with humor, and it can be done well. In this case, it was horrible. The name calling, potty humor and bullying were not what children's literature needs. I would not suggest this to anyone, as children have so many better choices out there. Aside from the negative language and behavior, there was really no plot. This book felt like a farce, where someone tried to put disgusting behavior and language on the page and see if people would believe that this is what children would like. My son didn't like it, and I didn't like it.

Fun, fun fun! What an excellent read, imaginative , very creative and engaging. In a marketplace that is saturated with "children's humour" stories, this came across as something a little bit different. Clearly written by someone who is a "child at heart" this stands out from other similar books. The characters are original fresh and beautifully imagined. This book will bring out the kid in everyone who reads it!

Eggy Mess.
OUCH is for ouchy hot. Russell Sprout, owner of Rotten Roots & Co, never to let a crooked deal slip by, has a perfect customer in mind for his next batch of stolen wares. One could argue that a green fashion and beauty monster, otherwise known as Vile Verruca, or Wicked Witch of All things East, needs a little help from the Universe when it comes to reversing her wrinkles, as casting spells from the deep corners of her mind didn’t seem to work anymore. Not to worry. Mr Sprout and his lumpy, flowery vegetable brother soon get the Sludge Slitherer in full gluping motion, resulting in something that looks rather terrifrying.  
A very good read. My daughter enjoyed this book. She liked the pictures in it and the cover. 5*.
