The Magic Word by Mac Barnett
A hilarious take on what a magic word really is from Mac Barnett, the award-winning, bestselling author of Sam and Dave Dig a Hole and Extra Yarn, and Elise Parsley, the bestselling author/illustrator of If You Ever Want to Bring an Alligator to School, Don't! and If You Ever Want to Bring a Piano to the Beach, Don't! When Paxton C. Heymeyer's babysitter tells him to say the magic word, she could never have imagined that what would happen next would be a walrus chasing her, an elephant in the living room playing cards, and a full water park and moat in the front yard. And that's just the beginning...
Praise for EXTRA YARN: "Understated illustrations and prose seamlessly construct an enchanting and mysterious tale" -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) Praise for EXTRA YARN: "Klassen's deadpan, stylized illustrations impeccably complement Barnett's quirky droll writing." -- School Library Journal (starred review) Praise for EXTRA YARN: "There's nothing to say but perfect." -- Lane Smith, New York Times bestselling author of IT'S A BOOK Praise for BILLY TWITTERS AND HIS BLUE WHALE PROBLEM: "Definitely funny and slyly subversive." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) Praise for THE CLOCK WITHOUT A FACE: "Ready to get your mind blown? Then dig into this." -- Booklist (starred review) Praise for THE CLOCK WITHOUT A FACE: "Clock seamlessly blends the playfulness of the kids' books we wished we had and the sophistication of [McSweeney's] trademark design." -- Time Out Chicago Praise for THE CLOCK WITHOUT A FACE: "Part The Westing Game, part Masquerade, this board book mystery lures readers in with its pentagonal shape, dry humor, and pages of intricate details." -- Publishers Weekly Praise for OH NO! (Or How My Science Project Destroyed the World): "Barnett's telegraphic text packs wicked humor into economical, comic book-style lines." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) Praise for OH NO! (Or How My Science Project Destroyed the World): "Santat's brilliantly hued digital illustrations are the perfect foil for Barnett's almost-wordless tale of a science project gone awry. A must-have."- -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) Praise for GUESS AGAIN: "An especially fun book to share" -- School Library Journal
