Pass it on

Description

A favorite childhood staple--the "telephone" game--makes for a mixed-up message misadventure. Kids will recognize a favorite game ("telephone") in which a passed-along phrase gets hopelessly and hilariously garbled. Funny situations, characters, and mishaps bring on the giggles and also convey how we sometimes hear things as we want them to be. Finally, with all its silliness and mayhem, this is also a nice portrait of a community pulling together to help one of their own get un-stuck!

Marilyn Stadler earned a degree in art but quickly discovered that writing was her true and most satisfying calling. She has since author over a dozen children's books, including several leveled readers for Random House and picture books for Golden Books. The author lives in Cincinnati, OH.
