This book is so funny! It is a lot like A Whole Nother Story and Lemony Snicket's books. It is awesome!

Okay, correction, this is in my top 100 books (maybe 50, but I think that honor goes to even awesomer books)! That's saying something; I have read a lot of books! BEST BOOK EVER! Well, actually, I say that about tons of books, so maybe not. But still, it is extremely awesome!

There four main Kidds in James Patterson's book, Treasure Hunters. Their names are Bick Kidd (12 years old), Beck Kidd (12 years old), Storm Kidd(14 years old), and Tommy Kidd(17 years old). Bick and Beck are twins and Bick does all the writing in the book, while Beck does all the drawing. Bick's real name is Bickford and his skills include writing, treasure hunting and martial arts. He's never seen without his pen and paper or (obviously) his winning smile. Bick likes Writing, Journaling, a good hamburger (his favorite food), living on the Kidd ship, The Lost, and arguing with Beck. He hates arguing with Beck, when The Lost sinks and having to draw anything! He carries around a notebook for treasure info and story ideas and often wears his favorite hat and hoodie and crusty high top sneakers. His backpack contains two emergency flares and ancient artifacts. Beck's real name is Rebecca and her skills include drawing and high stakes negotiation. She's never seen without her artist's eye and a quick insult for Bick. She loves Impressionist art, yelling at Bick and the fresh paint smell. She absolutely hates losing. Ever. She carries around a sketch book to draw in and often wears 3-D glasses and steel toe boots (in case pirates need a good kick in the shins). She also carries around a bartering currency change purse and a knapsack the contents of which include aquamarine nail polish, an assortment of pens and pencils and sea shells. Storm's real name is Stephanie (but don't EVER call her that) and she has a photographic memory and is good at research and planning. She’s never seen without an internet connection and a good owner’s manual to memorize. Storm like’s any book ever written (ask her about the 23rd page of the Iliad) She also likes pulling one over on fully grown-ups. She dislikes scuba diving and fleeing. She usually wears a jacket with her signature storm patch and glasses. Her IQ is off the charts and she often carries around a calculator and a handy magnifying glass. Tommy’s real name is Thomas (his nick name is Tailspin Tommy) and his skills include navigation, deep sea exploration and sleeping. He’s never seen without his little black book and a sleeveless shirt to show off his toned guns. He likes Suzie, Gina, Rachel, Jennifer, Cassandra, Nancy, Brittney, Raquel, Monica, Piper, Mary, Victoria, Sunflower, Tracy, Tracey, Traci, Yvette, Alicia and pretty much every other girl he’s ever met. He dislikes losing his hair care supplies. He often carries around his tiger shark tooth necklace and antique spy glass and his stinky gym bag the contents of which include socks, a spy cam a mask, and a snorkel. Many of the Kidds also carry around navigational charts or maps of some kindbick or bickford is the main writer of the story he is great at writing ,martial arts, and is never seen without a pen and paper and a winning smile (obviously) he likes writing, journaling, arguing with beck, hamburgers, and living on the lost.he has maps, his favorite hat and hoodie, a cool head under pressure, notepad, and crusty hightop sneakers. him and beck also specialize in treasure hunting. beck or rebecca is the illustrator of the story and is great at drawing and high stakes negotiation. she always has her artists eye and a quick insult for bick. she likes yelling at bick, impressionist art, and the smell of fresh paint.she dislikes losing (very much i might add).

A Twin Tirade only lasts about 1 minute and afterwards they make up right away and come up with good plans. I have learn that Bickford or Bick loves to write,smile all the time,and to argue with Rebecka or Beck. I have learned that Rebecka or Beck loves to draw pictures and has worn 3-D glasses ever since her mothers disappearance. I also have learned that they both love to treasure hunt and miss there Parents very,very,much.it is a 60 second squabble between bick and beck bick always has a pen and paper so he is the writer beck is an artist so she is the illustrator. together they are a great dynamic duo.this is JD319 SAYING I WROTE ALOT but i dont want to win just want to write ^.^
