The Magic Word
The Magic Word | Mac Barnett
2 posts | 5 read
A hilarious take on what a magic word really is from Mac Barnett, the award-winning, bestselling author of Sam and Dave Dig a Hole and Extra Yarn, and Elise Parsley, the bestselling author/illustrator of If You Ever Want to Bring an Alligator to School, Don't! and If You Ever Want to Bring a Piano to the Beach, Don't! When Paxton C. Heymeyers babysitter tells him to say the magic word, she could never have imagined that what would happen next would be a walrus chasing her, an elephant in the living room playing cards, and a full water park and moat in the front yard. And thats just the beginning

Meh. Random and mildly cute art. Not liking that the mother & father look like this in every panel (angry & confused). And Pax sorta learned his lesson at the end? Except it's ok to use the walruses on the babysitter again? Because she's gotta accept his apology, right? (13/20)

A young boy learns a magic word that grants him everything he wants (many, many cookies for starters), but soon learns it can get lonely when you chase everyone away with walruses. A little wordy for preschool story time, but perfect for a class visit read. #picturebook #storytime #macbarnett #funny
