Beloved picture book creator David Shannon introduces a new character in a satisfyingly silly and subversive take on a familiar parable. If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. Meet Mr. Nogginbody. Armed with his new hammer he fixes his floor then the wall and the picture on the wall and the shower and the stop sign at the end of the street. . . What else will Mr. Nogginbody “fix”? Celebrated author David Shannon’s comically misguided new character gets carried away by success, and kids will laugh out loud at the consequences.
