Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Dewey Fairchild, Sibling Problem Solver
Lorri Horn · 2019
75/100
👍 Worth It
Lorri Horn has a reliable formula here — Dewey as a warm, funny problem-solver kids actually want to follow — and the sibling angle gives the third book an especially relatable hook. Fart-jar pranks and new-baby anxieties land squarely in the wheelhouse of the 7-to-12 crowd, and the entrepreneurial thread gives the series an unusually positive role-model angle. Best starting at book one, but series fans will be satisfied.
