Overview / 简介: |
THE PAIN AND the Great One are going places! In these new stories the kids are on the go—the Pain needs a trip to the emergency room; the family goes to the mall and not everyone stays together; the kids visit a county fair and want to ride the Super Slide; and a beach outing includes a boogie board. Lots more action and adventure for the dynamic duo who never stay still. |

Kindergarten-Grade 3—Abigail (the Great One) and Jake (the Pain) are back. The theme for this book is traveling, whether it is as close as the local mall, showcasing the Pain's attempt to walk down the up escalator, or as far as the Florida Everglades, where the Great One tries to keep from being bitten by alligators by wearing her leather cowboy boots. An emergency room trip to get a pussy willow removed from the Pain's nose will make readers laugh out loud. The nine short stories beautifully capture the experiences of siblings who love one another but who don't always get along. Their long-suffering cat, Fluzzy, gets his own chapter at the end. Stevenson's drawings perfectly complement the tales. Blume has delivered another funny story collection about two memorable characters.—Kathleen Meulen, Blakely Elementary School, Bainbridge Island, WA

Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
Any of these books that "Judy Blume" wrote about the brother and sister duo is hilarious. I have two children and definately the little brother is "the Pain" and the "Great One" is the big sister. I read these to my children when they were little and now they are grown parents and I knew they each had to have a copy for their children. They both "laugh and love" these stories bringing back "great childhood times" from this fabulous author. We have bought all the series. The first one is just called "THE PAIN AND THE GREAT ONE." Parents, go to the library or just trust me, and read or buy these to get some " good clean happy times of your childrens' growth". They are a "treasure" as all of Judy Blumes books are. Thank you to Mrs. Blume for finding "good, happy, wholesome, humerous, and worthwhile" areas to write on for our children and ourselves as parents."
