Laura Park.
Friends Abner, a duck, and Ian, a prairie dog, are stuck on the vertical edges of this book. With help from readers (à la Press Here) and after a few false starts, they eventually find their way to the correct orientation. Expressive cartoons, a strong sense of comic timing, and a simple text suited to new readers equal picture-book success.
