(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Gillian Johnson. Adam Melon, a.k.a. Melonhead, and best friend Sam are whisked off to Paradise, Florida, to stay with Melonhead's grandparents, and they quickly launch a search for a pet to bring home. Kelly's deceptively simple plot works on multiple levels and never loses the rhythm of Melonhead's hilarious narration. Johnson's spot sketches echo the rapid-fire pace of the boys' escapades.
