Description

Shelley has to pick up the socks she’s left all over her room. But when she opens her sock drawer, a tiny troublemaking boy appears. She has to make her bed, but there he is again, underneath the sheets watering a tomato plant. Soon enough this tiny terror is making a mess all over the house and Shelley’s efforts to get rid of him only make him grow bigger. The solution, to everyone’s surprise, is banishment by hugs and kisses!

A newly designed Classic Munsch picture book introduces this charming tale of a tiny, yet persistent interloper to a new generation of young readers.
