Reach for this book when you find your child struggling with the 'gimme-gimmies' or when holiday gift lists are starting to overshadow the spirit of the season. This rhyming tale follows Danny, a young boy who asks for everything in the catalog, only to find that getting exactly what he wanted leads to a very messy and unexpected consequence. While it uses gross-out humor to keep kids engaged, it serves as a gentle cautionary tale about greed and the importance of being grateful for what we have. It is an ideal choice for parents who want to temper holiday entitlement with a dose of laughter and a memorable lesson on over-consumption. Best suited for children ages 3 to 7 who appreciate slapstick comedy.
