I absolutely loved this book! Though I have never actually watched Duck Dynasty (we don’t have cable! Give me a break!), I have seen enough plush toys and pillows to know who they are ;-) I was curious as to how good this book would be, and I was very impressed. I love the kind of books that you get to choose what the characters does, because there seems to be endless books within the one! I spent about two hours sitting on my bed laughing and reading all of the possibilities that could happen (possibly because I picture my dad doing all of the things that happened…….).

This is a really great book for anyone who loves Duck Dynasty or just loves to laugh in general! This book is actually geared for around 12ish but I think kids older will enjoy it, though I personally found a few spots to be kind of cheesy, but they were fun :-)

THINGS TO TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION FOR YOUNGER CHILDREN: Because the Time Machine looks like an outhouse, their are a few bathroom comments but no cussing.

I give Willie’s Redneck Time Machine 5 out of 5 stars for an enjoyable read and an entertaining two hours!

It's no secret, I'm not a huge fan of the Duck Dynasty franchise (it's everywhere!) but I thought that I had better see what all the fuss is about. I'm a public librarian and some of the most frequently requested items are the Duck Dynasty books, memoirs, cookbooks, DVDs, etc. If all my patrons are into it, than maybe it's time I see what the hype is about. I might as well start small so I decided to go with a kid's book. "Willie's Redneck Time Machine" is one of four "Be Your Own Duck Commander" titles, there are also: "Phil & the Ghost of Camp Ch-Yo-Ca," "Sin in Space," and "Jase & the Deadliest Hunt" in the series. I was pleasantly surprised when I realized that this was a choose your own adventure book!

The reader plays the part of Willie Jess Robertson (This book caters mainly to boys, obviously. The only women mentioned are not strong adventurous women like the MEN of the family, but hey, whatever floats their boats!) who discovers an odd looking outhouse in the shop. Readers will laugh out loud as they get to decide what to do at the end of each chapter. Should they go in the outhouse? How far back in time should they travel? Should they listen to their belly and go to dinner instead? Unlike the original "Choose Your Own Adventure" books, there is no dying in this series so need to worry about scaring kids. If something "bad" happens (think dinosaurs), Willie just wakes back up in the shop. No harm done.

This book series is perfect for little boys (poop jokes, dinosaurs, hunting, etc.) and fans of the Duck Dynasty franchise. It's clean (except for poop jokes) and perfectly sensible for little kids. No death, no guns (except to kill adorable little ducks), no scandalous behavior.

I received this book for free from Tyndale Press in return for my honest, unbiased opinion. ( )

I sat down with my kids one morning — planning to read just some of Willie’s Redneck Time Machine. However, we ended up laughing our way through SIX different stories before I decided we better get something else done! :)

I’m hoping that this book, which is the first book in a new choose-your-own-adventure series called Be Your Own Duck Commander, will catch the interest of my reluctant reader to read on her own. She really loved the choices and the adventures!!

In this book you (as Willie) discover an out-house which is actually a time machine in the Duck Commander warehouse. However, it might take you a while to figure that out, because you’re sure your brother Jase is playing a joke on you! Then…depending on your choices…you…well, I don’t want to give too much away, but John Luke is always involved!

We are really looking forward to the rest of the series: Phil & the Ghost of Camp Ch-Yo-Ca, Sin in Space, and Jase & the Deadliest Hunt!

Enjoy the adventure!!!

P.S. I loved these growing up! :)
