(4) 1-3 Illustrated by Serge Bloch. In this comic-hybrid fictional memoir, Toby regularly aggravates his parents and other adults with his literal responses to questions and comments. While the frenetic narrative, with meandering introductions to the people in Toby's life, is mostly a vehicle for clever wordplay and smart-alecky jokes, second and third graders will eat this up. Bloch's childlike cartoons further the book's appeal.
