What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

Every great adventure needs a hero–or two! This playful take on storytelling and equity proves that two tellers can make a rhyming tale twice as nice. What do you do with an interrupting sibling? Especially when she’s stepping all over your story with wild ideas that don’t. Even. Rhyme. Knights riding rockets? Dancing pirates? Who’s ever heard of a fire-breathing armadillo?! But when this big brother realizes his sister just might be improving his yarn–and doing it with an impressive surprise of her own–it’s clear what you do with an interrupting sibling. You share the narrative! Turns out adventure is way more fun when you build it together, rhyme by daring rhyme. “Sure to amuse.” –Booklist (starred review)”Immensely creative . . . Exciting.” –BookPage (starred review)”Riotous.” –Kirkus “Hilarious . . . Such a funny read-aloud.” –Book Riot “Sprightly . . . Energetic.” –Publishers Weekly”Funny throughout.” –The Horn Book
