Oddballs was a really funny book and it was also a book that once you start reading it, you don't want to stop.  Everything i put it down, it made me wonder what the next story would be, like during this book, Tycho got hypnotized and was made to drink out of a toilet, and their sister, Vicky, would rip the arms and legs off of dolls. All of the stories in this book were about something different, and it was cool because some of them I could relate to.  Even though these kids had a lot of responsibility, they still had fun as a family.  This book shows that having three siblings, or even any siblings at all was always fun, hard, and even scary, but they all still love each other, no matter what, Danny, Tycho, and Vicky loved each other unconditionally.

I recommend this book to anyone who loves a funny, family book.
