The humor is generally on that level throughout the book. Timmy spends an inordinate amount of time filing complaints against Corrina Corrina with the Better Detective Bureau, while she seems to be only marginally aware of his existence.Īt school, his teacher pairs him up in a team with the smart kids in the hopes that their intelligence will rub off on him, but he winds up sabotaging their success on standardized tests by drawing designs on the scantron forms, and infuriating his only friend, Rollo, who is obsessed with the idea of getting into a good college and is being tutored by Corrina Corrina (who Timmy refers to as “the evil one” - which somehow, over the course of the story, morphs into “the weevil bun.”) He examines the obvious clues in each case and comes up with some crazy outrageous explanations for what might have happened, while his rival and arch-nemesis Corrina Corrina solves all the crimes. Timmy fancies himself to be a detective and hires himself out to solve mysteries with his sidekick and pet polar bear, Total (Failure). Timmy Failure is sort of a cross between Diary of a Wimpy Kid and The Adventures of Jo Schmo.
