5/5 i would recommend years 3-5 to read. this book was a definite page turner. he lives with two rude aunts, Aunt spike who is bony and skinny and aunt sponge who is huge. One day a peach started growing in the peach tree witch was strange because this tree never had peaches but inside there were friends waiting for James to come and go on an adventure......
