Description

A classroom adventure that will have readers racing to the shelves, from Mrs. Laura Bush and her daughter Jenna! Tyrone rules the school! He's king of the monkey bars, a math machine, and a science whiz. The only thing he doesn't like about school is reading. It's so boring! But when strange visitors start dropping by the classroom during story hour, Tyrone discovers there's more to books than just words on pages.

She lives with her husband and three children in New York City.

This purposeful tale gets a real kick from the art. Brunkus, the illustrator of the Junie B. Jones books, offers highly colored pictures that find fun in classroom situations, both real and fantastical. Even nonreaders may be prompted to give books a try. -- ALA Booklist The nation's First Librarian and her daughter team up to present a well-meaning salute to the pleasures of reading. -- Kirkus Reviews
