      Yep, it's just what you might guess from the title: a parody of Dick and Jane books, featuring classic Star Trek characters. ("See Spock. See Spock push down his feelings. Down, down, down!") It features some very specific references to particular classic Trek episodes, so it's definitely aimed at an audience of dedicated Trekkies. As a dedicated Trekkie (or at least, a former dedicated Trekkie who still knows way too much about the original show and carries it fondly in her heart), I enjoyed the heck out of it. The illustrations are great, with very recognizable and amusing versions of the characters. And the text is unexpectedly hilarious. I mean, it made me laugh repeatedly, including some real belly laughs. To be honest, I bought this almost on a whim and wasn't expecting that much out of it, but I'm very happy to have been wrong about that.

      Would make a nice gift for the Trekkie in your life. As a run-of-the-mill fan*, I had a couple of out-loud belly-laugh moments, but it was mostly just smiles of "oh clever"and general appreciation of the familiarity.*I've seen them all more than once and I love it, but I don't make a lifestyle of it.

      Go, go, go, Reader!
      Read the book.
      Laugh boldly!

      Written in the "Dick and Jane" style, Fun with Kirk and Spock claims it will help cadets of all ages master the art of reading. However, it is obviously written for adults with words that no young cadet would understand and situations that are clearly for adults. Although Spock in his rubber ducky inner tube float cannot be unseen once seen, there's nothing naughty.

      My wonderful husband gave me this book, knowing I am a huge Star Trek Original Series fan. I whooped out loud. To me, that is all you can ask from a book that isn't even 70 pages long.

      It is highly recommended as a funny, quick read.

      A hilarious parody of Dick and Jane, great for any Trek fans!
    • 4/5
      Robb Pearlman's Fun with Kirk and Spock perfectly evokes the tone of William S. Gray and Zerna Sharp's Dick and Jane series while delighting in the humor and joy of the original Star Trek series. Fans, both casual and lifelong, will find themselves uproariously laughing as they read this.
    • 3/5
      Not as amusing as I hoped it would be. The art is appealing, but the text grasps for humor in classic Trek scenes too often.
