About This Book
Reach for this book when you have reached your limit on early morning wake-up calls and need a humorous way to show your children the reality of their 'quiet' playtime. It is a relatable and witty look at two brothers who try their best to be good and stay quiet while their parents sleep in on a Sunday morning, only to leave a trail of creative destruction in their wake. Judith Viorst perfectly captures the well-intentioned but chaotic logic of childhood. It is an ideal choice for parents of siblings who want to validate the energy of their kids while gently highlighting the need for patience and boundaries. This story normalizes the messiness of family life with charm and a much needed dose of humor for tired caregivers.
