Here’s a book that will get the whole family laughing. When a large family of ferrets and their precocious baby take a chaotic trip to the supermarket, mom can’t keep track of the groceries, the shopping cart . . . or even the kids! Baby Edwin tries to help, but everyone thinks he’s just babbling. Little do they know that he really has all the answers. Full of fun-to-say nonsense words this is a perfect storytime book and a great read-aloud. April Stevens, author of “Waking Up Wendell, “ is accompanied by Ezra Jack Keats Award winner Sophie Blackall for a match-up that is sure to delight.
