Bookroo's summary

Chick and Brain stumble upon a mysterious object. Chick insists it's an egg, while Brain argues it's an eyeball. As their debate intensifies, manners unravel and chaos ensues. Will they discover the truth, or will their antics lead to an unexpected surprise? Dive into this laugh-out-loud tale where good manners and wild imaginations collide, leaving readers guessing until the very end.

From the publisher

Cece Bell follows her Geisel Honor Book, Chick and Brain: Smell My Foot, with an even wackier story for beginning readers, sure to elicit eye-rolling squeals of delight.

Oh! Oh, oh, oh! Look what Brain found. Chick and Spot say it is an egg. Brain says it is an eyeball. Is it an egg or an eyeball? The inimitable Cece Bell is back with a second hilarious primer on good manners gone awry and arguments run amok. Perfectly pitched to kids just learning to read and loaded with verbal and visual comedy, this offbeat graphic story by a master of the genre builds to an exhilaratingly absurd surprise ending.

“Definitely little kid humor . . . lots of repetition (great for new readers), easy to follow comic book format, and a little twist at the end.”
