Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
With warmth, empathy, and a healthy dose of hilarity, Robie H. Harris and Harry Bliss capture the many emotions children feel when parents go out -- and a babysitter comes in!
Guess what? The babysitter is coming!
That means:
1. Mommy and Daddy are going out
2. the feisty heroine of this book is not going out . . .
3. and she doesn't like that one bit!
Parents, kids, and babysitters alike will relate to--and laugh at--this all-too-familiar tale, wisely and wittily penned by an expert in child development and brought wickedly to life with detailed illustrations by a noted New Yorker cartoonist.
When her parents go out for the evening, a little girl threatens to run off to Alaska but has a good time with the babysitter instead.
