Say what is a very funny book i read it in a couple days and loved it. Say what is about 3 kids and their parents are not saying the right things. Like if you were running in the house their parents would say something like "eat your dinner" Say what was a good book. You should read it!

My favorite part of Say What was when Sukie spilled glitter all over the floor.

My favorite part of Say What is when Sukie thought her parents were aliens. Then she told her brothers Brian and Reed and they laughed at her.

I think this is a really good book i think this is a really good book beacause there parents say things at the children while they're bad but the parents scold them with a diffrent thing that they did bad.

I think that this book is amazing.Sukie is such a wonderful character for this cool book.Don't you think that the "expirement" was super silly? if I were a character in this book I would be extremely scared of what happened. Read the book to feel the fun and exitment I did!

I love the book "Say What". It's funny and interesting. My favorite part is when Reed keeps saying that their mom and dad are maybe robots or aliens.

I think say what?was a good book.I liked when the parents said things that were totally off topic like when the little girl spilt liquid on the carpet her dad said"dont pick your nose"and she wasnt even picking her nose!I never heared of any parent doing that.I also like that the kids all had a meeting about what there parents were doing and how they tried to get them to stop.my favorite character was the little girl she like my friends In many ways.read say what?I hope you love it just as much as i loved It.

"Say What?"is an awesome book. Our most favorite part in "Say What?" is when one of the boys stepped on his mother's favorite pillow she was very upset. It was a very funny book. The funniest part was when the kids played along with their parents/ little trick.

Say What? I like this book because the main character's mom and dad were saying the wrong things....like if a child wrote on the wall, they might say tie your shoes and confusing everything.

My favorite part in the book is the very ending when Sukie and her family agree to have one wrong talking night each month.

"SAY WHAT" was one of the funniest battle of the books books that I was read out of all 15 of them. I wonder what I would do I my parents started to act like that?

Say what is about three children who are not the most perfect children but there not the best children ether.The three main chachters are the childen. Their names are Sukie Byran and Reed. The parents are saying the wrong things to make them do the right things. The book is good. The next time you want a good and funny book go to the libary and check out Say what.
