A-a-a-a-choo! What happens when a warthog sneezes? First, the soup slops; then someone slithers, and the lamp begins to wobble…Before long, the whole house is a mess! This clever book combines clumsy warthogs with onomatopoeia–the use of words that sound like their meaning–and produces some very slippery results.
