(4) 4-6 Illustrated by David Heatley. This book revolves around a motley assortment of NYC apartment-building residents and Otis Dooda's attempts to free himself from a curse bestowed by lobby fixture "Potted Plant Guy." Otis must thwart his pimply brother; meddling, pushy mom; and a neighbor's smelly pony. Gross-out jokes will amuse potty-humor enthusiasts, and entertaining cartoons complement the story but add little dimension to Otis's plight.
