Ninety-Three in My Family

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Mike Lester. When the narrator's teacher asks, "How many live with you?", he recounts all ninety-two family members (ninety-three, including him): his mom, dad, two sisters, and an assortment of domestic and exotic pets. He proceeds (in rhyme) to describe the chaos of meals, car trips, bath time, and sleeping arrangements. The funny, dynamic illustrations and the curly typeface echo the story's silliness.
