Publisher Description
The irrepressibly inquisitive Marco is off to school in this illustrated eBook with audio from New Yorker cartoonist Roz Chast.
Marco is the busiest bird, and it’s time he goes to school! There is so much to do at school, from lessons to lunch to building a block tower to the moon! But Marco soon learns that his plans for the day may be just a bit too ambitious. Luckily, school has one extra surprise for him—and that’s a new friend!
In this eBook with audio, acclaimed cartoonist Roz Chast proves that it’s not getting to the moon that counts—it’s the friends we make along the way.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Marco the red parrot wanted to do everything (except sleep) in Too Busy Marco. His mind is still awhirl in this school-themed follow-up: while Marco's teacher, Mrs. Peachtree, drones on ("Monday Tuesday Chewsday Chumday Humday Doo-dah-day"), his thoughts are on becoming the first bird on the moon ("Must get to moon," reads the wired bird's thought bubble at naptime). Chast isn't interested in messages or lessons Marco daydreams, has fun at school, and that's about it and her scribbly ink-detailed watercolors and Marco's left-field observations convey his singular perspective with abundant humor. Ages 4 8.
