The Truth About My Unbelievable School...

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Benjamin Chaud. Once again (A Funny Thing Happened at the Museum... etc.), Cali and Chaud tease humor from the rift between amusingly unreliable young Henry's statements ("Our swimming instructor is kind of strange") and what the viewer sees (the school's swimming instructor is a sea monster). With its fine-lined, borderline-macabre art and small trim size, this book could almost be an Edward Gorey creation.
