A propos du livre

Revue de presse

From School Library Journal"The frog family depicted in Time for Bed, the Babysitter Said  and To the Tub  is back. This time little Joe's long-suffering parents attempt to take him to a fancy restaurant for lunch. The irrepressible preschooler is in constant motion despite the repeated refrain, "We're out to lunch, not out to play." Full-page, color cartoons capture the exasperated expressions of the adults around him perfectly. The bouncy rhymed text reads aloud well and could also be enjoyed independently by beginning readers. A treat."From Kirkus Reviews"A brief rhyming text, suitable for beginning readers, and cartoon-style illustrations chronicle a frog family's disastrous lunch at a fancy restaurant."    About Time for Bed, the Babysitter Said: "This froggy folly makes the grade."              --School Library Journal  "A deft message of courtesy is amusingly wrapped in a story that carries more than a few chuckles."                 --Booklist  About To the Tub: "Suitable goofiness keeps this story...sprightly and humorous, as do the ebullient cartoony drawings."                                                                                         --Kirkus Reviews "Good-natured slapstick sets the tone, and Anderson's bright rhymes follow suit, reinforced by fresh watercolor and pen-and-ink illustrations dancing on bright white pages."                                                                                         -- School Library Journal  About Joe on the Go: "A book with a lot of child appeal."  -- School Library Journal "Illustrated with bright, boisterous, line-and-watercolor pictures, the simple rhyming text will draw story hour listeners as well as beginning readers to a scenario they may recognize."  --Booklist

Présentation de l'éditeur

"Mind your manners well today, we're out to lunch, not out to play!" When the babysitter calls at the last minute to cancel, Joe's parents take him out to lunch at a restaurant with neither crayons nor a play area. Mischievous Joe just can't stop wiggling and misbehaving. His amusing antics turn a quiet lunch at a fancy restaurant into a spectacle that ends with an unexpected treat!
