Plaidypus Lost

Description

Snippity snip. Stitchity stitch. Buttons for eyes. Surprise! Grandpa's old plaid shirt is now my new Plaidypus! Tag along with a lively young girl and her constant companion as they find adventures wherever they go--the park, the lake, or the supermarket candy aisle! And don't forget to keep an eye on Plaidypus, as there's always a chance he'll find himself astray--stuck in the sand, high on a shelf...But no need to worry: Plaidypus lost, Plaidypus found. This story goes around and around!! Janet Stevens and her sister; Susan Stevens Crummel, bring to life a heart-warming tale of a girl with a boundless imagination and a very special friend.

"A little girl takes her beloved stuffed toy, made from one of grandpa's old shirts, with her wherever she goes. Unfortunately, she leaves him wherever she goes as well." "Endearing...a good bet for larger storytime crowds." "A little girl takes her beloved stuffed toy, made from one of grandpa's old shirts, with her wherever she goes.
