Description
Kids will find this wickedly clever picture book a barrel of laughs! You can bet your bottom dollar this funny story is the cream of the crop and the best thing since sliced bread! Award-winning artist Serge Bloch will have kids laughing their heads off at this childÃs-eye look at common idiomatic expressions like ôants in your pants,ö and ôcat got your tongue?ö These are sayings that adults know well, but that children might find puzzling at first; Bloch presents them in witty and wonderful images that mix whimsical line drawings with photographs of inanimate objects: colourful butterflies flutter in our heroÃs stomach, a cloud rains on him when heÃs ôunder the weather,ö and the ôbig cheeseö Principal has a body cut out of a block of Swiss. At the same time, Bloch provides a unique and sympathetic perspective on a boyÃs first day of school. This is one book kids will hold close to their hearts!
