Praise for Robert Munsch and Michael Martchenko"Laurel and Hardy, Holmes and Watson, peanut butter and jam — some things just go better together. Robert Munsch and Michael Martchenko figured that out a number of years ago, and have been teaming up to produce silly, insanely popular books ever since." —Quill & QuirePraise for Robert Munsch“[Munsch is] a kindergarten superstar he ranks up there with Pablum and Pampers in name recognition arguably the most published Canadian author ever, in any genre.” — The Globe and Mail, Report on Business Magazine"Munsch's parade of bright funny picture books has been a sales phenomenon in children's book publishing . . . And as Munsch books are requested by kids over and over every day in countless homes and schools, at story time and bedtime, the distinctive storyteller's voice will undoubtedly continue to be echoed for years to come by parents, teachers, babysitters and whomever else young kids can get to read to them." — The Chronicle Herald"Arguably the most successful kid-lit writer in North America." — Toronto Star"More witty, creative and entertaining than most of what passes for adult literature." — The Globe and Mail“Munsch is now as important to a whole generation of children as any television character. ”— Quill & Quire
ROBERT MUNSCH has written more than forty books. He is Canada''s best-selling author and his stories are beloved by children, parents, teachers and booksellers alike. Munsch says this story is based on a tale he first made up for his younger daughter.

MICHAEL MARTCHENKO''s illustrations are as instantly identifiable as Robert Munsch''s stories. His wild and colourful images add depth and even more hilarity to these now classic tales. He was the recipient of the Canada''s Booksellers'' Association Children''s Illustrator of the Year Libris Award in 2006.
