520    Picture books are such good fun and so is making them-- 
       but who knew there were so many things that could go 
       wrong? This is the story of a picture book doomed from the
       very start. Allan has a good idea for a book about a 
       crocodile, but every time he sits down to write, he's 
       interrupted. The manuscript gets soaked in coffee, nibbled
       by snails, and when Bruce gets started on the pictures, he
       gets overexcited and draws a hippo, not a crocodile, at 
       which point the publishers get overexcited too--they want 
       a dinosaur and experiment with all kinds of different 
       fonts. Allan and Bruce finally think they've straightened 
       things out, when the book goes off to the printer and--you
       guessed it--the trouble really starts. My Worst Book Ever 
       is a clever and amusing introduction to the process of 
       writing books for children, and they--along with their 
       parents--will be delighted to see how hilariously wrong 
       Allan and Bruce's book turns out.
