2013

“A lively, lyrical celebration of the sweet, sweet abandon of running amok among those who love you best.”

From other reviews:

“A spirited, loving depiction of extended familial bonds.”
Kirkus

“An annual family reunion brings together a passel of carefree cousins in this joyful pairing of Crum’s (Mine!) comically heroic verse with Catrow’s (Have Fun, Molly Lou Mellon) equally rollicking pictures. . . . A triumphant ode to family in all of its messy, quirky glory.”
Publishers Weekly, starred review

“Author and illustrator together have captured the manic energy of cousins unleashed.”
School Library Journal

“It’s an exuberant and comfortable time with family, and many kids will relate. A spirited real-aloud for summertime fun.”
