Dozens of Cousins by Shutta Crum
We are wild and fierce. We do not wait for invitations. It s time for the annual family reunion, and the dozens of cousins are running wild like beasties. Like hungry ogres They hug fluttering aunts and soft-spoken elders, play in the creek, shimmy up trees, take double-dog dares, and devour the sweet juiciness of the world along with hot dogs and watermelon. Hilarious side stories unfold in Catrow s fantastically colorful, chaotic spreads that gambol and splash with comical caricatures of grinning kinfolk large and small. A lively, lyrical celebration of the sweet, sweet abandon of running amok among those who love you best.
