Description
Morgan is looking forward to having the best birthday party he has ever had and he is inviting everyone - even, in a rash moment, Aldeen Hummel, the Godzilla of Grade Three. By the time the big day arrives, many of the guests have declined because of Aldeen. But Morgan's parents go ahead with the party. There are presents and party games, and Aldeen, of all people, brings in the cake with all its candles...
In this new book Morgan is his usual loveable self, trying to have things work out just right, and trying not to have Aldeen upset the apple cart of his hopes and dreams.
Ted Staunton lives in Port Hope, Ontario. This is the 6th book in the Morgan series.
