Aunt Matilda's Almost-Boring Party

32 pp. | Front | September, 2009 | Trade ISBN 978-1-59078-653-6 $16.95
(4) K-3 Illustrated by David Udovic. The narrator is forced to "show oh-so-perfect manners" at Aunt Matilda's posh do. Bored out of his mind, he sneaks a nap; the rhyming text details his more exciting dream-state version of the party. Though the humor is a little forced, vibrant illustrations of cream pies soaring across the pages give this grownup party a kid-friendly vibe.
