Noodleheads Do the Impossible

by Martha Hamilton, Tedd Arnold, Mitch Weiss   |  Ages 5-8
$10.90

Noodleheads Do the Impossible
Noodleheads Do the Impossible

Goofy comic chaos for clever young readers

This is the kind of book kids pick up for the jokes and keep reading because Mac and Mac are hilariously, gloriously wrong about everything. The comic-style format and short chapters make it feel easy and fast, especially for reluctant readers. It also has that extra spark where children get to be smarter than the characters, which makes the whole adventure even more satisfying.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Mac and Mac take on the impossible to become famous in this comic-style Noodleheads adventure. In this installment, the brothers decide to walk around the world, but Mom says it’s too far, so they count stars. They reach a bazillion when some stars fall into Mom’s washtub. Mac and Mac rescue the stars, but lose count, so they switch to counting grains of sand. While counting, they realize they’ve walked around the world. This easy-to-read graphic novel features short chapters full of wordplay, jokes, and slapstick humor, making it perfect for comic fans and reluctant readers. It is co-written and illustrated by Tedd Arnold, known for his Fly Guy series. Based on traditional world folktales and stories of fools, the Noodleheads encourage readers to use their noodles to spot holes in the brothers’ grand plans. Source notes by co-authors Martha Hamilton and Mitch Weiss provide information about the traditional stories that inspired the adventures and offer suggestions for further reading. This title is part of the Noodleheads graphic novel series, including the Geisel Honor book Noodleheads See the Future. Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection.
