SADIE MOUSE WRECKS THE HOUSE written by Elliot Kalan, illustrated by Tim Miller

Illustrator Tim Miller and writer Elliot Kalan together create a refreshing picture of a reforming good girl in SADIE MOUSE WRECKS THE HOUSE. Pictures and words capture both feelings and actions throughout. Starting with good girl Sadie who takes up the slack when her brother Reggie avoids his share of to-dos, her resentment and his sloth are perfectly reflected as are Sadie’s turnabout moment and the reversal of their roles. Humor presides as Sadie makes the bed “into an ice cream sundae” and vacuums up every item in the living room. While Sadie naps because being bad is exhausting, Reggie takes on the chores and begs his bad sister to reconsider being bad. “Good” kids and “bad”will savor the fun in this romping read-aloud.
