A Girl and Her Gator

Description

Claire-the sister of the "boy who one day woke up with a bunny on his head"-discovers that she too has a strange new condition: When she looks in the mirror, there is a gator in her hair! What is she to do? Panic? Run to Mother? Or, like her brother, learn to enjoy her new friend? With endearing characters and simple, chuckle-worthy rhyme schemes, Sean Bryan and Tom Murphy, the author and illustrator of A Boy and His Bunny, have once again worked their magic. In Claire, they have created an equally spunky and lovable character, bound to delight and entertain young children and their parents.

Entertainingly loopy with its off-the-wall situation and imagina- tive pell-mell rhyme . . . Planes of apple green and sugar pink dominate the illustrations, while sturdy yet light-hearted line work creates matter-of-factly fantastical scenarios. Great fun to read aloud!
