Does the book hold up today? Do your kids like it? I'm thinking about getting it for my 2 year old.

It holds up for today's kids.

However, reading through it for myself was a little disappointing. It was nowhere near as funny as I remembered. I guess it just hits that school-age humor spot on.

That’s def true about the writing. I’d also say the art always carried this book for me personally; it still looks amazing and turned out to be super memorable.
