Frogs in beds; Eyeballs in drinks; Worms in spaghetti Mr and Mrs Twit are really disgusting. They smell because they never wash, they fight because they play tricks on each other, and they hate children. But worst of all, they keep monkeys in their back garden. In cages.

I liked the monkeys idea and that they got stuck to the roof but I don’t like the twits. They are very ugly and mean.

I liked the way that in the first few chapters mr twit and mrs twit kept playing pranks on each other. I didn’t like the words they used

I enjoyed the book as the Twits were getting pranked by the monkeys and birds. An example is Mr Twit put sticky glue on the big dead tree for birds to land on it and then the next day Mr and Mrs Twit could have bird pie to eat. The funniest part was when Mr Twit put sticky glue on the big dead tree and the next day there were little boys stuck on the tree instead of birds. Mr Twit came up the ladder and said "I guess we are having boy pie and the boys took their pants off and ran away with their bums showing.

I liked this book because Mr and Mrs Twit try to catch animals for their pie by painting a very sticky glue on to their big tree in the garden.Later in the story a strange bird called the Roly Poly bird tells all the other birds that there is sticky glue on the tree.

I really liked the Muggle-Wump Monkeys because they are so silly and clever and sensible. I like what the Monkeys did with the house.

I thought this book was funny, they play pranks on each other, and they both have lots of hair, and they eat birds for dinner, that disgusting
I though it was funny when they stuck upside down in there house, and then there was just clothes and walking sticks on the floor. Very funny

I would recommend this book because it is full of laughter and my favourite part was when Mr Twit told Mrs Twit she was shrinking. my favourite character was Muggle Wump because he tricked the Twits !

I really enjoyed reading ‘The Twits’ because I thought it was a very funny and exciting book. My favourite character was Mr Twit because he’s a really strange individual but I also thought he was very interesting.
The main message from this story was that being mean and disrespectful isn’t very nice and you should always treat other people how you want to be treated.
I would definitely recommend this book.
