About this item
An untidy kid sets off a pest invasion like no other in this boisterously fun picture book about the perils of messy habits.Playing and having fun is a kid's job, right? Cleaning up is a parent's job, right? Why do grown-ups make such a fuss about tidiness and cleanliness, anyway? What's the worst that could happen? A couple of ants pass through? A lone little mouse pays a midnight call? No big deal, right? Right? Author Jason Carter Eaton and illustrator Mark Fearing are here to caution you that being a slob might in fact be a big deal - a really big deal. Maybe even a BARBARIAN-size deal! This outrageously absurd cautionary tale might just make you think twice about the cupcake crumbs in your bed and the half-eaten cheese curls behind the sofa. After all, you could end up with an infestation of barbaric proportions!
About the Author
Hello, if you're reading this, that means you're not me. Cause I wrote it, but I'm not gonna read it. Same with all my books. I wrote each and every one of 'em. But I'll be damned if I'm gonna sit around and read 'em all again! Who's got time for that? But don't let that stop YOU from reading them. In fact, I encourage you to. Read them all and tell me what they're about, okay? Cause, um, there's a test on them on Monday and I'm not really prepared. Thanks!
