Don’t Grown-Ups Ever Have Fun? By Jamie Harper 2003
The young girl who narrates this story is flabbergasted by the choices her parents make on a day-to-day basis. Why would they want to sleep in when there is so much to do? Why don’t they want to have fun while they clean? She thinks that her Mom and Dad should be more like she and her siblings. This exuberant story reminds us that being a parent can be exhausting, but that being childlike can reenergize us. The dynamics of family are illustrated in a humorous, and rambunctious way.
Appropriate for ages 4-8

Thanks so much Jenni on such a nice review. It seems so long ago that I
worked on that book. But it was my first so it will always be special.
Enjoy the holidays.
