This is a kid's version Jasper Fforde. The time Warp trio are looking forward to a summer without adventure, when they leave their summer reading list inside the magic book, and all of the characters come to life. Of course, the villains band together to take over the world!
It is very silly, but

amusing, and the booklist at the end is a lovely touch.
I'd give this to kids looking for funny stories, and older kids who will be very familiar with the myriad of characters.
