About the Author:
Liz Garton Scanlon (http://lizgartonscanlon.com/) is the author of many beloved children's books, including All the World, illustrated by Marla Frazee, which won a Caldecott Honor, and her debut middle-grade novel The Great Good Summer. She lives with her family in Austin, Texas. She's all grown up now, but sometimes when she's sick she still wants her "bob." Audrey Vernick is the author of twenty books for young readers, including Unlike Other Monsters, Is Your Buffalo Ready for Kindergarten? and First Grade Dropout. When she feels drippy and gross, she likes to snuggle with her dog, who is not named Bob. Visit her online at www.audreyvernick.com.
Matthew Cordell has illustrated more than a dozen picture books including Special Delivery by Philip C. Stead, First Grade Dropout by Audrey Vernick, as well as several he has written himself, like New York Times Notable Best Picture Book hello! hello!, Another Brother, and Wish. He lives in the suburbs of Chicago with his wife, author Julie Halpern, and their two young children. But when he's sick, Matthew acts like the biggest baby in the house. (Just ask Julie.)
From School Library Journal:
Matthew Cordell has illustrated more than a dozen picture books including Special Delivery by Philip C. Stead, First Grade Dropout by Audrey Vernick, as well as several he has written himself, like New York Times Notable Best Picture Book hello! hello!, Another Brother, and Wish. He lives in the suburbs of Chicago with his wife, author Julie Halpern, and their two young children. But when he's sick, Matthew acts like the biggest baby in the house. (Just ask Julie.)
PreS-Gr 2—Little Louie has a bad cold. His nose is clogged. His brain is fuzzy. In a sudden urge to abandon self-sufficiency, he yells for his mom—but congestion makes it sound like he's asking for "Bob," which is coincidentally the name of his dog. Instead of a warm, comforting parent, Louie gets his drooly, high-strung dalmatian. This is the central joke of the book. (For the former Bob, the "o" is stylized to look like a heart, while for the latter, it simply looks like an "o.") Readers are told that the text should "be read as though you have the worst cold ever." The story is child-centric if a bit unfocused and is in keeping with busy families and the havoc caused by ailing children. Cordell's Jules Feiffer—esque illustrations are entertaining, even though the unvaried white background could use more pep. VERDICT Wheezy, sneezy kids are likely to enjoy hearing about someone who's as sick as they are and to giggle at the ongoing confusion. A competent but one-note addition.—Susan Weitz, formerly at Spencer-Van Etten School District, Spencer, NY
