Send the invites, set the table, and prepare for all types of guests in author- illustrator Katie Vernon’s rollicking good time picture book, We’re Having a Party (for Everyone!).
How do you host a party for a chipmunk, a ghost, a vampire, an astronaut, a giraffe, a robot, a tooth, an octopus, a rockstar, a T. rex, a queen, Gramps, Paw Paw, and Bigfoot? Lana has a few tips for her nervous pup, Lemon, on how to make sure their first dinner party is a total success! First you must take guests’ coats, thank those who bring gifts, and, most importantly, invite everyone to dance (after dessert, of course).
Bursting with color and quirky illustrations, We’re Having a Party (for Everyone!) teaches young readers about social etiquette, accommodating others, and how much fun goes into planning a shindig. With funny details on every page and an imaginative double-twist ending, young readers will be eager to host an amazing dinner party of their own.
Praise
"Childlike, mixed-media...brimming with clever details. Whimsical warmth."
—Kirkus
"This book’s punny wordplay and visual surprises make it best enjoyed up close—kiddos will giggle as they snuggle down and plan a future dinner party (real or imagined) of their own."
—The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books
