Watch Your Tongue, Cecily Beasley

24 pp. | Sterling | August, 2012 | Trade ISBN 978-1-4027-7089-0 $14.95
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Jon Davis. You've heard that if you do such-and-such with your face it will stay that way? Such is the fate of a brat named Cecily who likes to mockingly stick out her tongue. Several rhymes almost reach Seussian heights, but after the first few hyper-exaggerated illustrations of Cecily with a bird on her protruding tongue, the visual humor tips to unsettling.
