ABOUT WHAT TO DO WHEN YOU’RE SENT TO YOUR ROOM . . .
New York Times Book Review
The timeout is a stubborn feature of modern childhood, and wild-eyed Ben’s amusing guide to surviving room-bound stretches is part practicality — update birthday list; sort baseball cards — part unapologetic anarchy — make faces at brother out the window; wait for him to do something even worse than what you did.
Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books
There’s much hilarity to be found here, and the narrator’s impeccable advice could argue for this title’s inclusion in the nonfiction section. Hmmm.
