Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Step right up! Step right up to the amusing amusement park! It's a whole story, and the pages have holes! Watch the holes transform pictures! Turn an umbrella into a cake and balloons into ice cream! See the holes transform words! Turn an ice man into a nice man and see fork handles turn into four candles! Outstanding in the Rain will turn any gray day into one that is Grade A!
From the creator of New York Times Best-Illustrated book Along a Long Road and A Long Way Away , picture book master Frank Viva does it again, this time with astounding die-cuts that transform both words and pictures in delightful ways, while telling the story of a young boy spending his birthday at Coney Island, in search of his heart's desire.
Rhyming text tells of a boy's birthday at Coney Island, while each turn of the page reveals a new meaning for an oronym--a pair of words or phrases which sound the same but have different spellings and meanings.
