...has been cracking me up, lately. I have copied and pasted info about it at the bottom of this post. The characters in the story are cleverly named! They are in bold print. It amuses me!
I have tried and tried to put a picture of the book on this post. I see it on other blogs all of the time. However, I was unsuccessful at accomplishing that. So, if you want to see what the book looks like-click here.
