A boy becomes alarmed, thinking his body will fall apart because of things people say - like "that broke your heart" or "this will crack you up."
Review
Very clever! Allows kids to laugh at our figurative language take to a literal extreme. The illustrations are great - especially the pages that show what the boy thinks will happen to him.
This is a sequel to Parts (Picture Puffins)
, and is followed by Even More Parts.4 out of 5 stars
Recommended for: children 3 to 8, teachers talking about figurative language
Cautions: none
