Duncan Rumplemeyer's Bad Birthday

32 pp. | Simon/Wiseman | September, 2004 | Trade ISBN 0-689-86732-8 $15.95
(3) K-3 "Why share? If a toy is fun, why let go of it?" Duncan Rumplemeyer sometimes has trouble following the rules, and one birthday he goes too far. The precocious first-person narration is meant to be funny more than it's meant to authentically capture a child's voice and impressions--and funny it is, with assistance from the manic black-outlined images of the birthday brat in action.
Reviewer: Nell Beram
