6 year old says... Why have we read 25 books in one day? I really like this book, it's the 25th book we've read today. It's been a very fun day. We read most of it upside down to show it's not impossible. I like the bit where Mr Impossible breaks into chocolate cakes [dad says, not sure we were reading the same book - I don't remember that bit]

40 year old says... I'm a little confused. Even Jay pointed this out when we were reading it - Mr impossible says "this is impossible", then does it, which shows that what he's saying isn't impossible at all. He's a liar and I don't think we can trust him. Add to this the fact that he can make himself invisible and I think we've got a bit of a problem. An untrustworthy, invisible Mr man at large, I don't think I'll be sleeping tonight.
A charming little story about someone named Mr. Impossible who could do all the impossible things. It’s really possible to read this tale in 5 minutes and feel impossibly wonderful after reading it.
Mr Impossible has so many fantastic abilities - he can fly! He can turn invisible! He can jump over a house! Mr Impossible meets a rather unremarkable young man named William who lacks much of an imagination and asks Mr Impossible to do "Impossible" actions such as climb a tree and stand on one hand (really William? That's the best you could come up with?) William takes Mr Impossible to school, where the teacher some how does not notice this new purple student and is shocked when William (with Mr Impossibles assistance) solves an impossible math problem. What kind of a teacher would assign Impossible math questions?
Hargreaves popular Mr. Men series has the ability to both delight and subtlety giving a simple life lesson to it's young readers.
In this instance Mr. Impossible has the ability to do practically anything, much to the delight of young William who invites him along to school with him.
The morning's maths lesson the teacher sets the almost impossible task of solving an equation with various multiplications and divisions, bet you can guess who solved it...
I reckon the teacher was relying on the class taking all day about it!
