A wayward proboscis takes flight and leads a young boy on a merry chase in
this utterly absurd, but amusing nonsense tale. When David's Dad sneezes
furiously, his nose blows right off his face "in a hurricane breeze" and
runs away. A disconcerted Dad tells David to catch the nose before it blows
again. Ignoring David's cries to "stop," the naughty nose keeps running,
leading David into a clothesline, through prickly plants, over a truck of
chickens, onto the roof of a building and finally into an airplane. Every
time the nose sneezes it blows out something amazing—an aardvark, an
antelope, an ambulance, an alligator, an ape, an airplane and an
athlete—that joins the bizarre chase. The silly verse is accentuated by
equally comic oil illustrations that capture every action-packed antic of
the acrobatic nose and its ensuing menagerie. This surreal rescue story
should tickle tiny noses with lots of giggles and guffaws. (Picture book.

Thinking about having me come and talk with your group?

All right, I'll blow my own horn, too.
