A fun read aloud

Young kids, medium-aged kids, teenagers and adults will all recognize themselves and get a real kick out of this book. The idea is fresh, the prose is playful and matches well with the colorful and energetic illustrations - the book is a real delight.

Just Plain Fun

Children will grin as they recognize themselves in these pages. Parents will nod knowingly. Kids and grown-ups will laugh together as they read this fun book that takes a light-hearted look at the claims and complaints that children often make about cleaning their rooms, wearing boots, going to bed, and so on. Kay Winters has given us a book that is just plain fun and, as a bonus, may help children put their complaints in perspective. Doug Cushman's delightful and richly imagined illustrations add to the enjoyment!
