What's Roar of a Snore About

Publisher Summary

All the Huffles are fast asleep, except for Jack. “He heard a noise that rocked the floor. He heard a noise that shook the door. Jack heard . . . a snore!” Just who is making this racket? Unable to sleep, Jack and his dog go searching. It must be Mama Gwyn, whose huffs and puffs set her curlers spinning, but when Jack wakes her . . . the snore roars on! And so it goes with Baby Sue, the twins, Papa Ben, even the farm animals. At last the Huffles follow their ears toward a surprising culprit.
