Book description

A hoot of a spoof dares to ask the question: Are picture books doomed? Kids will want to find out which favorite storybook characters will make it onto the pages of the beloved genre\'s \"final\" tale! Upon hearing a rumor that picture books are \"over,\" a nervous white rabbit declares that he won\'t give up his \"job\" without one last hurrah--a final picture book. Three little pigs, a wolf and others declare that a classic story would be best, but a determined newcomer feels that a brand new plot would be better. Pinky Princess thinks the story should be pink, still others lobby for a bedtime tale, and a little boy just wants the wild rumpus to stop! The kid-observers find all the squabbling so entertaining they declare that they want another equally fun story. \"Once upon a time\" declare the characters... And the picture book lives to tell another story. An Original Twist on Classic Characters of a Classic Genre: Picture book favorites galore--a very pink princess, little pigs (3 altogether), a \"ravenous\" catepillar, a non-small/not-good wolf, monsters, a wild little boy, etc.--all make appearances in a funny, fractured fairytale-style story. A Hoot of a Spoof: With its cast of classic characters, think \"Who Framed Roger Rabbit\" in picture book form. Too Good to be the Last: Kids will want to read this again and again! Leads kids to other great picture books: the story\'s cast of great picture book characters will inspire them to look for their books. 16.99 USD
