<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>A pair of kids learn what it is <i>really</i> like to be squished together during one hilarious and eventful car ride!</b> <p/>When Max and Molly can't stop complaining about being squished in the back seat of the car, their clever mom knows exactly what to do--offer rides to their animal friends, who are happy to pile in and come along! As the back seat fills up with a wiggly piglet, two flitting ducklings, and three woofing puppies, soon Max and Molly are not only squished--they're SQUISH SQUASH SQUISHED! So when they notice Mom slowing down to wave at Scooter Mooter and his calves, Max and Molly don't say a word--they hush-mush. Thankfully, Mom keeps driving--and after everyone's dropped off and it's time to hustle-bustle home, Max and Molly are happy to stretch out in the back seat of their suddenly gracious-spacious automobile.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"There's a touch of the classic 'It Could Always Be Worse' folktale here, which Rector invigorates with her playful, rhyme-infused prose that rolls right off the readaloud tongue. Pencil and digital art has a tidy jauntiness that echoes Mom's mien, and the happy little town populated by a mix of humans and animals (an active lot, judging by the fact the giraffe is jogging and the dogs were out on a bicycle built for four) is a charming venue for all. Audiences may guess that Mom's got an ulterior motive from the get-go here, and either way they'll enjoy the giggle-worthy language and moral about comparative--and probably short-term--peace."--<i><b>The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books</b> <p/></i>"Entertaining update of the classic Yiddish folktale 'It Could Always Be Worse.' . . . The humorous situation, cumulative action, abundance of audience-pleasing animal sounds, and well-earned resolution should make readers glad to go along for the ride."--<i><b><i>Horn Book</i></b><br></i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Rebecca Kraft Rector is a children's librarian who has written over thirty children's books and whose work has been published in several magazines for young readers.
