Mrs. Downs' First Graders love Traction Man. She will dedicate this imaginative and very funny romp through the fantasy play of a young boy with his newly acquired action figure. Square-jawed and equipped with combat boots, scuba gear, space suit, and camouflage, Traction Man overcomes evil pillows, dastardly brooms, a poisonous dishcloth, and a wicked spade. This fresh, funny hero and Grey's celebration of a child's imagination will bring a smile to all.
