Illustrated by
Neal Layton.
Danny decides to drink the sea--and that's only the beginning. The little redhead's exploits escalate from goofy to tall tale–like to absurdist at just the right pace. The rhymes roll along in nonstop dactyls, and Danny just keeps getting more and more gleeful. Preschoolers will relate to the glorious pleasure of being bad and the outlandish humor of the mixed-media illustrations.
