Good follow up book to Trouble with Lemons. Great to use for cause and effect. Also,all of the art references lend to opportunities for research projects.

Instructional ideas: Literature circles, journal response, character development, discuss the art presented in the book, research well-known artist in the region, friendship, family relations, decision making, prediction, truthfulness, actions and consequences.

This was a book I read in a college children's literature class. I re-read it with Matthew a couple of months ago. It is the best of Daniel Haye's books (we think). Timewise it probably comes after Trouble with Lemons. This book is far more humorous and somewhat slapstick, but has a good message also. Especially for teens (in all of us)
