Charlie Bumpers vs. His Big Blabby Mouth

(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Adam Gustavson. Charlie asks his accountant father to speak at Career Week, hoping a successful classroom appearance will reflect positively on him. After boasting about his dad's serious math skills, Charlie's classmates misinterpret his father's career, and Charlie must face the half-truths his friends now believe. This sixth installment is an amusing tale of well-intentioned exaggerations; black-and-white ink and watercolor spot art is sprinkled throughout.
