Iggy the Legend (Iggy #4)

Gr 2-4--Iggy's adventures continue in this series installment. Iggy tries to convince readers that he is not responsible for a get-rich-quick scheme involving the tooth fairy. In the beginning, Iggy is thrilled when his best friend Diego builds a tree house. He is less thrilled when Diego decides to form a members-only club that requires members pay $11.60 to play in the tree house. Iggy tries several methods to raise the money but with no success. When he finds a bag of teeth on the sidewalk, he comes up with a brilliant plan to gather funds. The short chapters and engaging text will make this a fun and accessible work for those who are newer to chapter books. Readers will enjoy Iggy's silliness and his attempts to prove that he is not 100 percent to blame for his actions. Readers of previous entries will enjoy continuing Iggy's adventures. The illustrations are suitably silly and add to the fun of the text. VERDICT Buy this amusing title if the other books in the series are popular.--V. Lynn Christiansen
