Hiccup Snickup

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Thor Wickstrom. Everyone has an idea of how the narrator can get rid of her hiccups, but after being "scared to death...wearing a paper bag...while standing on my head [and] holding my breath," there's no change. When the whole family chants and dances Grandma's wacky "hiccup snickup" cure, the girl finds success. Wickstrom's oil paintings showcase both the silly dance and its results.
