<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"For his return visit to the wacky Sharemore Hotel, Mr. Snore will be playing his violin at a fancy wedding. As he waits for his cue to join the ceremony, he admires the wedding cake...and notices that he's not alone in ogling that tower of frothy perfection.

But Mr. Snore, rushing the cake trolley from room to room, is going to do his heroic best to save that prize from sure disaster"--Provided by publisher.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>In a raucous sequel to <i>There's a Dinosaur on the 13th Floor</i>, Mr. Snore is back at the hotel to play his violin at a wedding--where his valiant efforts to protect the elaborate cake go hilariously awry. </b> <p/>For his return visit to the wacky Sharemore Hotel, Mr. Snore will be playing his violin at a fancy wedding.
