Originally Published: October 1985
Recommended for: People of all ages. The illustrations are amazingly detailed, and the story is funny. I loved this book so much, my mom actually went to our local bookstore (a mom and pop shop) and special ordered it for me, because I checked it out of the library so often!

Mental Health Resources for those in the USA – In light of the recent election, we want to put out a message that LGBTQIA+ and minorities are always welcome here. We may post promos in conjunction with tour companies that spout worldviews we don’t always agree with, but we do our best to avoid any openly phobic posts, and should you notice any, we’d appreciate you contacting us with this form to let us know.
