Summary: A reader from CA
Review: This book REALLY caught my interest early. I couldn't put it down. My only complaint with this is that it wasn't longer. I wanted to read more about Homer's adventures. I enjoyed reading a book about a normal kid and his life. I'm kind of sick of reading about kids with super-natural powers or something like that. It was fun to just read about someone with a normal life and normal surroundings. I recommend this book to anyone 9 and up.

Summary: An undiminished delight
Review: This book should be at the top of your purchase list for every child in the 7 to 10 age group. Homer is an all-American boy in the all-American small town of Centerburg, somewhere in the all-American midwest, and in six hilarious escapades he keeps the kids (and grownup readers, too) enthralled. The stories are funny, engaging and original, and the illustrations, by the author, are priceless. Everyone will have their favorite chapter in this book; my own favorite was "The Doughnuts"; decades after I first read it as a child, it's still as fresh and funny as it was way back when. I bought this book for my son when he was seven and he was in stitches from the first page to the last. "Homer" is one of the all-time champs.

Summary: A wonderful book for kids 8 and older!
Review: This book was first read to me (and the rest of my class) when I was in 4th grade, in 1958. The simple, descriptive stories about the daily adventures of a small-town boy and the other quirky characters who live there captivated our imaginations and charmed us -- much the same as the "Andy of Mayberry" show, with Opie, Aunt Bee, Barnie, Floyd, Goober and the rest did a few years later. As a result, I became an avid reader. This is a great book for reading to boys and girls, and for them to read themselves. My 10 year old daughter just finished it and loved it.

Summary: Homer Price: It' s a MUST!
Review: This book was the best! It was so fun, and entertaining. I had a blast reading it! I really liked this book because it is writen in a very simple way and so it makes it easier for you to read and understand. I also like the idea of the book being split each chapter into one adventure, because if you don’t like that certain chapter or adventure you can count on the next one to be of your choice. Also because every chapter is very exciting and interesting and so it makes you want to keep reading on and on. As I would say it’s a “page turner” and I really recommend you read it! Believe me you’ll LOVE it!

Summary: Fifth grade class enjoyed reading about Homer's adventures.
Review: We are grade 5T from Holland Elementary School in Holland, Massachusetts. There are 16 students in our class. Most of us are 10 to 11 years old. We read Homer Price for our first literature study book of the year.The book is about a young boy and six of his marvelous adventures. The stories take place in the 1930's. The setting is the small town of Centerburg. Homer has adventures with the Sheriff, his Uncle Ulysses, and friends Freddy and Louis. They meet unusual people like Mr. Murphy, the Super-Duper, and Miss Terwilliger. Here are some things our class liked about the book. We liked the stories because they were funny and interesting. The class liked all the Sheriff's spoonerisms. We liked how the stories were short. A lot of people thought that Aroma was a really neat pet. The class liked how all the stories were mainly about Homer. Here are some things that our class did not like about the book. Some of our class did not like how old-fashioned the stories were. Some of us are more interested in contemporary stories. Some of us thought the stories were a little too long. We found some words were very long and complicated. It was kind of hard.
