Book Review & Giveaway – The Ultimate Top Secret Guide to Taking Over the World

About the Book

We’ve all watched super villains attempt to take over the world, but now… it’s our turn! The Ultimate Top Secret Guide to Taking Over the World (Sourcebooks Jabberwocky, ISBN 9781402238345, July 2011, Ages 9-12) by Kenn Nesbitt is the hilarious step-by-step instruction book on how to take over the world.

From evil robots to recruiting minions and perfecting a diabolical laugh, every reader can master the secret skills to world domination.  With tongue-planted-firmly-in-cheek, Kenn Nesbitt gives middle grade readers a laugh-out-loud romp through classic evil-doer dos and don’ts while sneaking in some sophisticated vocabulary and clever – if nefarious (mwah! ha! ha!) – reasoning skills.

By the time kids are done reading this ingenious book, they’ll have entire countries groveling at their feet.  (Parents beware!)

Author Kenn Nesbitt is currently plotting the overthrow of humanity from his underground fortress in Spokane, Washington, where he hides out with his wife and two minions. He is the author of six collections of funny poetry for kids—including My Hippo Has the Hiccups and The Tighty-Whitey Spider—and one award-winning picture book, the patently untrue story of the author’s struggle to wrest control of his book from the children who want it to have More Bears!

About the Illustrator

Ethan Long has spent the last 40 years of his life practicing good deeds and angelic ways, none of which you will find in this book. He lives in Orlando, Florida and has no intention of ruling the world.

My Take on the Book
This book was a humorous way to look at being your own diabolical mastermind genius. It provides the would-be evil-doer all of the essentials for doing this. From mastering your evil laugh to building a giant space laser, this book has a bit of everything and the kitchen sink written within. I have to say that the book was very funny and I could see this book being read by Dr. Evil in the Austin Powers movies.
