What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

The second book in the New York Times bestselling series that began with If You Ever Want to Bring an Alligator to School, Don’t! is another uproarious cautionary tale about things that DON’T belong together! If your mom says to get ready to play at the beach, she means with a boat, or a Frisbee, or a shovel. She is NOT talking about the piano. But Magnolia is a little girl with a big idea, determination, and one very heavy upright piano that, she insists, she needs to take with her. What’s the worst that can happen? In a riotous series of mishaps, Magnolia quickly learns that–not surprisingly–a piano doesn’t mix well with sand, sun, and seagulls!
