Reviews for Because I Stubbed My Toe

[thehidingspot · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

When a boy stubs his toe, he sets off a hilarious chain of events that will no doubt leave kids and adults laughing right up to the deliciously unexpected ending. The resulting chaos builds in silliness as the novel progresses: a dropped ice cream cone sends a biker of the road, to a child's flight after being launched from a teeter-totter, to an escaped herd of elephants. Energetic illustrations of the unforeseen consequences that ensue pair perfectly with the simple text.
