Practice Makes Perfect for Rotten Ralph

48 pp. | Farrar | March, 2002 | Trade ISBN 0-374-36356-0 $$15.00
(2) K-3 Rotten Ralph Rotten Reader series. Illustrated by Nicole Rubel. Ralph is unwilling to work to win prizes at the carnival, and he scoffs at perfect cousin Percy's constant practicing. Naturally, Ralph shames himself. Percy wins a slew of prizes, which prompts Ralph to devise a scheme, a dangerous proposition. Ralph's misbehavior is as entertaining as it is reprehensible. Illustrated with Rubel's deadpan pictures, this is a prize for newly independent readers, for whom "practice makes perfect" indeed.
