About this audiobook
Oggie Cooder returns. . .this time showing what a party animal he can be (birthday party animal, that is)!
Oggie Cooder has never set foot (or swim fin) in his neighbor Donnica Perfecto's swimming pool. But now he has his chance - it's Donnica's birthday, and her mom has forced her to invite Oggie to the pool party! Donnica, though, isn't about to let this happen. She has a plan to keep Oggie away. But what she doesn't count on is the power of Oggie's charving, an unexpected visit from a local rock band, a creative use of a cherry picker, a dog that tweets like a bird, and a boy in a bear suit whose identity will change everything when it's revealed.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Characters: Oggie, Donnica, Amy, Dawn, Hannah, Mrs. Perfecto, Setting: At school and at home.Theme: Be yourself no matter how people treat you.Genre: Fiction, humor, hi-low Summary: Oggie is a young adult who clever, innocent, and quirky. He wears mismatched clothing and is good at cheese carving. The book being titled, “party” means indicates that there is a big birthday party that is going to happen. The girl Donnica, is holding her birthday party and she doesn’t want Oggie to go. One of her schemes to keep him away is to have him remember 101 party rules. However, Donnica’s mom convinces that Donnica should invite Oggie. The book continues as Donnica tries to do everything to her will in order to keep Oggie away from her celebration. Audience: Young adultsCurriculum ties: social interactions, acceptance, bullying, language- learning about characteristics. Personal response: I remember growing up in middle school and high school was always tough. Being accepted and making sure that you had good friends was a difficult thing to manage. In this book, it presents how being different can be tough for some students. In addition, making sure that you are invited to one of the biggest birthday parties of the year is also important. This book does a great job at presenting how a person who is different can be accepted and be put in a light that is positive. Even the book presents Oggie as someone who is different, he displays some interesting and funny characteristics. On the area of visuals, this book presents some great sketches of the book and can be easily read by adults and high school students. It works as a book that can reach to different age levels and presents itself as a book that is relatable to young adults.
