発行者による作品情報
From the Caldecott Award-winning and bestselling team of Audrey Vernick, Liz Garton Scanlon, and Matthew Cordell comes a hilarious sick-day read-aloud!
Little Louie is stuck in bed with a bad cold. His nose is clogged, his ears are crackling, and his brain feels full. All he wants is his mom to take care of him, but whenever he calls out for her, his stuffed-up nose makes it sound like he's summoning slobbery dog Bob instead! This silly but sweet picture book will make kids laugh out loud as Louie tries to make himself understood. They won't be able to help joining Louie in crying out, "Bob, not Bob!"
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Scanlon and Vernick's opening description of their young hero, Louie, creates instant intimacy: "Little Louie wasn't all that little. It wasn't like he needed his mom every minute of the day." But after Louie gets a terrible cold, his calls for "Mom" come out sounding like "Bob" (the family dog), and the big, lolloping hound "came running. And slobbering." Cordell (The Knowing Book) is wonderful at capturing the chaos of the sickroom: Bob drooling on the bed, tissue that didn't make it into the wastebasket, overturned baskets of laundry. Scanlon (In the Canyon) and Vernick (Unlike Other Monsters) understand the way that being sick makes kids need comfort that they don't usually need, how it makes them unrecognizable even to themselves, and the comfort a mother's presence brings. Every page offers a giggle: "His lips chapped and his eyes gunked. As for his nose, you can't even imagine." With its funny, congested language ("I doan wan by bedicine") and problems every reader will understand this is read-aloud gold. Ages 3 5. Authors'
