This #BookFace is caught in a sticky situation…
And this day started out so well! If you’re looking for the best advice on how to remove gum from your hair, maybe skip reading “On Account of the Gum” by Adan Rex. If you’re looking for a good laugh, this is your book! It’s available as an eBook from Nebraska OverDrive Libraries. Nebraska OverDrive Libraries has a wide variety of children’s books, from picture books to to youth adult titles, and more.
Conversational rhyme, cascading action, and dramatic page turns create a story of early-morning, get-ready-for-school chaos. Gum-wrapper endpaper illustrations collaged under a bubble gum-pink wash set the tone for escalating silliness . . . [On Account of the Gum is a] gloriously giggly tale glued together by a glob of very gooey gum. –Kirkus Reviews, starred review
