YAWN!!!!!!!

This book was booooooring. At first it was okay and I liked the setup. But it seems often like the author is bragging about how many books theyve read. GEEZ! I nearly fell asleep. On the plus side sometimes the references made me giggle and I liked the main characters. But really this was not the best book. Sorry 2 say it was pretty bad.

This book must be GREAT!

I have only heard of this book from a girl in school but she says its good so I am taking her word for it.

Smiley Faces!

I've read this book and reread it... I'd suggest it to ANYBODY! No oun intended.

Ehhh

It was defenunentley like no other book, but i found myself skipping pages and zoneing out during some of my read and having to fo back and read again.......... overall: 3 stars

This is an amazing book!

Fern's life in the beginning of this book is somewhat like the life of Harry Potter. When she finds her real father, he takes her on an adventure full of suspense and mystery. I was at summer camp when I read this and I finished before I got home. It is a book I would recommend to anyone

Awesome!

This book is one of my favorites!! It is an awesome series and I really want to read the third.I read any kind of magical book I can get my hands on and this is one of my favorites.

Anybodies by N.E. Bode, peter Ferguson

This book is the first in a series of three, and because of this first book my son is excited to read all three. He especially enjoyed the author's writing style, he writes as if he is in the room telling the story himself. He often interups his own story to tell you what he is thinking at the time, this was very amusing. It is often particually funny when he comments on what his writing teacher would think of his work. The basis of the story is a young girl has superpowers allowing her to take "things" out of any book. Who wouldn't want that ability? fun! This book is an easy read and just enjoyable, the kids will love it.

When you know you love a book

When I started reading I did'nt really care for it it was weird in the begining, but the good kind of weird. It all makes sence in the end and is amazing I think anyone who likes a fantasy and realistic fiction mixed together will liove this book.

Great!!!!!!

The first time I read this book, I loved it! There was magic and just a hint of mystery. But I have to admit, the second time I read this book, I couldn't get through it. The magic was gone :'( Oh well, some great books are like that. They are so great and suspenseful the first time, the surprise is gone the second time.

AN OUTSTANDING BOOK!

Fern Drudger is a very imaginative girl, but compared to her parents, she is crazy. She sees things that shouldn¿t be real, and she never knows why. She is forced to think that they are in her imagination. Fern¿s parents are dull accountants. One night she heard a knock on the door. Her parents answered the door and there stood a woman, a man, and what looked to be like his son. Fern found out that she was switched from birth, by an over confused nurse, who was the woman. The nurse, who was really a man and Fern¿s real father are in a secret society called the Anybodies. Howard, the Drudgers real son, and Fern switched for the summer. Fern found out that Miser, who used to be a friend of the Bone, was looking for The Art of Being an Anybody. Miser is also an Anybody. Fern and the Bone set out to find the lost book, The Art of Being an Anybody. While they are looking they find many bumps in the road, and they have to see things from a different point of view than they normally would. This book carries you along with it, and it makes you feel like you could be in the book yourself. This book is defiantly a ten out of ten. There is nothing bad about this book. It keeps you in your seat, and wanting to read more. I would recommend this book to all kids.

Bestest Book!

It's so great that I can't tell you how good it is. You should read it yourself. N.E. Bode made Fern one amazing girl!

Why this book is great!

This book is amazing because it leaves me hangign throughout the whole entire book and you are always wondering what is going to happen next. At the beginning of this book i wanted to put the book down and get a different book because it left me confused but is began to exsplain everything and why certain things were happening in the story. The book was magical and made boring things become alive. It was inteesting how the author described Ferns grandmothers bording house, and that is was made out of books. My fovorit part of the book is when Fern figured out that her grandmother is the great Realdo and that she helped the Bone in past years and left him thinking that the great Realdo was a magical person who the Bone would never see in person.This book is rcomened to adults and children.

Great Book!

I am a third grade teacher and I can't wait to read this book to my class. I could not put it down. The quirky humor and style of writing are wonderful!

BEST BOOK EVER!!!!!!!!!!

I started reading this, and I loved it. But I don't know why. It's probably either: the switch of children, the part about the Drudgers turning into monkeys, or the creativity. But for whatever reason why, I still love it.

Hooray for N.E. Bode

Bravo for N.E. Bode! Fern Drudger, a intelligent girl, finds herself swapped for the summer and to find The Art of Being Anybody with her, er, father, The Bone.As they encounter spies, a house full of books, and a villian, they realize what the true, third ingrediant is.

Best Book of The Year!

So, on a whim, I picked up this book to read while on vacation. Fortunately (and unfortunately) it didn't make it that far. Fortunately, because it was one of the wittiest books I've ever read. Unfortunately, because I didn't have another book to read on the trip. The characters are all highly imaginative, and the author goes off on these little tangents about his or her writing instructor that are absolutely laugh-out-loud funny. It's great to find a book out there where you feel for the characters and where you can't wait to find out what's going to happen. It's also great to have such a book have such clean language. Please go get the book...You won't regret it!!! PS: There's going to be a sequel in 2005, The Nobodies.

The Anybodies is a witty, wonderful read for any age

Like the best of young reader literature, which is referenced liberally in this charming tale of eleven-year-old Fern's discovery of her real family and her extraordinary powers, The Anybodies is a pleasure for young readers and adults alike. I bought it because it's a Book-of-the-month selection, and I meant to give it to friends with kids aged 10-13. But then I snuck a peak and I was hooked. Fern grows up learning to ignore things like bats turning into marbles and nuns turning into lampposts because The Drudgers, her parents, are accountants and wouldn't understand that sort of thing. But of course, this is a story where things aren't always what they seem (it tells you so on the cover!) and The Drudgers aren't her real parents at all. Soon Fern is whisked away by her father, known as The Bone, and she discovers powers she inherited from her grandmother and mother, which include shaking characters out of books. And there are other surprises, too...Fern's a spirited and sweet heroine, and you root for her all the way through this thrilling adventure.
