Grody's Not So Golden Rules

40 pp. | Harcourt/Silver Whistle | May, 2003 | Trade ISBN 0-15-216241-0 $$16.00
(4) K-3 Everyone tells dog Grody what to do, so he comes up with his own rules: don't get out of bed or wash; talk when the teacher talks; etc. Finally, the last busy mixed-media illustration shows a dirty, unhappy Grody clutching his dismal report card beneath rule fourteen: "don't follow my rules or you will look just like me-eeeeeeeeee!" While a bit facile, the book will speak to those who feel beset by authority figures.
