Customer Reviews

One of Richard Scarry's funniest stories ever

It's a shame this story is out of print, because I would buy for every 3 to 6-year-old child I know. The story and drawings are hilarious, with Mr. Frumble (the world's most incompetent pig) leaving chaos wherever he goes. The unfortunate Mr. Raccoon puts Mr. Frumble in charge of his coffee shop while he goes to the bank for change, and Mr. Frumble manages to accidentally trash the place from floor to ceiling while Mr. Raccoon is gone. The next-to-last picture shows Mr. Raccoon approaching the coffee shop, where disaster awaits, and a fallen curtain propped up by two pointy ears watching him. The final picture is of Mr. Frumble running away before Mr. Raccoon can look inside the door. A marvelous book, this one appeals to grownups as well as kids.
