My Take on the Book
If you thought that the statement of "My dog ate my homework" was far-fetched this book seems to go even further (or does it). The book is a delightful tale of two friends as they are asked by their teacher for their homework. Each page is full of beautiful images and a fun story. By the end what you think you know may be in question, so hold onto the very end. The whole story will draw you in on every page with colorful images that just jump off the page. The story is also unique and you will want to see what happens after you read through the entire book!
