Parker Picks

32 pp. | Simon | October, 2002 | Trade ISBN 0-689-83456-X $$15.95
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Pedro Martin. Parker (a perpetual nose-picker) flicks his boogers into the fish tank, wipes them on the walls, and feeds them to his dog. Although his family and teacher disapprove, Parker continues picking until his finger gets stuck up his nostril. Martin's bold, digitally rendered cartoon illustrations are full of gross-out humor, but the point of the joke wavers uncertainly.
