Traction
Man
?wearing combat boots, battle pants, and his warfare shirt?comes in a box, but very quickly finds the way into the imagination of his lucky boy owner. This superhero searches for the Lost Wreck of the Sieve as the boy makes a game of doing the dishes, and later in the bathtub, he conquers the Mysterious Toes that are stealing his pet, the brave little Scrubbing Brush. These are just a few of the action-packed adventures played out by the boy and his new toy that may not be able to leap tall buildings in a single bound, but can vanquish all manner of villains lurking around the house. Mini Grey?s story in words and pictures is an irresistible invitation to the private world of a child?s play.
Praise for The Very Smart Pea and the Princess-to-Be:
?A rib-tickling U.S. debut for Grey, with plenty of sight gags to complement the chatty narrative.??Kirkus Reviews
?The Very Smart Pea and the Princess-to-Be delivers an entertaining spin and a great deal of visual wit.??The

Super Fun read

is so fun I had to read it to my grandson 5 times one day! The illustrations are clever, colorful and so interesting you notice something different every time you read it.
A Winner!
My boys (ages 5 & 2.5) have enjoyed this
book
so much that we quicky hurried back to the bookstore hoping that Mini Grey had written a sequel! A definite winner!
Worth it for the wardrobe alone!
This
book
was recommended to me by a fellow mom of boys. My son (age 4) enjoys this book, and we parents get a kick out of the more subtle humor that goes over the heads of preschoolers.
LOVE this book!!!
This is a great
book
for boys or girls. It is funny, smart and very engaging for kids. Plus the illustrations are beautiful. This is a great gift for any child 2 and up. Don't limit yourself to non-readers or early readers - this book (and any beautifully illustrated and written picture book) is a wonderful addition to the library of any primary-school aged child.

You will read this book over and over
My 4 and 6 year old love this
book
. We checked it out at the library so
man
y times, we finally decided we needed to add it to our collection. Humorous and interesting enough so that the parents don't mind reading it a million times.
