What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

“Mr. Frimdimpny, a heavy, bossy, gloomy alligator, lays down the rules for this book: do not laugh! Do not smile! If you do, you have to go back to the front of the book. Then various slapstick scenes show animal characters in mess and mayhem-caused by the reader.” –“Booklist” “A giggly masterpiece.” –“Kirkus Reviews”
