Description
If you missed author Jeanie Franz Ransom's visit earlier this month to Reed, don't dispair! We have an new, autographed copy of "What REALLY Happened to Humpty?" just for you!
Grades 1-4- “Hard-boiled detective Joe Dumpty’s ovoid body is encased in a ’40s-era belted brown trench coat topped with a fedora, and his clipped statements will remind older readers of TV’s Joe Friday. Here, cleft-chinned Joe recounts how he cracked one of the toughest mysteries in Mother Gooseland: the assault with intent to spill the yolky interior of his older brother, Humpty. This enchanting send-up of old-time detective stories will have older readers in stitches, while younger readers will get caught up in the clever recombination of fairy-tale characters. The illustrations, done in watercolor and pen and ink, are as filled with puns and crowded with humorous detail as the story…This CSI: Mother Goose is a winner.”– Booklist “Starred Review”
