"If a person has ugly thoughts, it begins to show on the face. And when that person has ugly thoughts every day, every week, every year, the face gets uglier and uglier until it looks so ugly you can hardly bear to look at it."

How do you outwit a Twit? Mr. and Mrs. Twit are the smelliest, ugliest people in the world. They hate everything -- except playing mean jokes on each other, catching innocent birds to put in their Bird Pies, and making their caged monkeys, the Muggle-Wumps, stand on their heads all day. But the Muggle-Wumps have had enough. They don't just want out, they want revenge.

I think that the Twits was a really good book because it is funny when they played tricks on each other. I liked all of the characters because they are always doing a trick like the wormy spaghetti and the frog trick also the glass eye. When Mr Twit made Mrs twit have the shrinks . Mr Twit every night was placing a little peace of wood on Mrs Twits walking stick. The Twits are horrible to each other! The Twits are mischievous and amazing about the tricks they must of always remembered them for a couple off years and months. Mr Twit must off have a dad who teached him and his dad must off knew all off the tricks in the entire universe!!!!! That must be why he knew all off the are really goose tricks. The Twits are really ugly and disgusting they are un believable because you can’t see them when you think you can see them!

The Twit are a nasty family that bully animals and make the monkeys stand on their heads. Every Tuesday they catch some birds for bird pie day on Wednesday. Our favourite part was the glass eye trick because Mr Twit gets a horrid shock. When Mr Twit has any sort of food it gets stuck in his beard. The revolting Twits have a lifeless disgusting tree in their vile garden. The monkeys are worthless because they do not get treated very nicely. The baby monkeys faint because they get made to stand on their heads for six or more hours. The shrinks are horrid because they shrink into their shoes!

What you might not like about this book is that every Tuesday evening Mr Twit carefully, wisely and cheerfully paints Hug-Tight glue on the big dead tree. To eat bird pie every Wednesday and it was their favourite meal. People that would like to read this book is people who Are 5 or over and people who like comedy or gross books. The Twits’ are mean, nasty, smelly, vile and are covered in mouldy warts and Mr Twit especially is covered in mouldy, rotten food mostly in his revolting, horrid beard.

The Twits book is superb. Our favourite part is the tricks because they are funny. The tricks we like are the shrinks. It is about Mr Twit playing a trick on Mrs Twit for pay back because of the wormy spaghetti. So Mr Twit every night he adds little bits of sticks and one-day he said you got shrinks. 5 to 9
