silly illustrations and text, draws in young readers, do your best and be happy with yourself, be true to yourself

The team of Allard and Marshall produced some great work with the Stupids books that I remember loving as a child. In the Stupids Have a Ball, the Stupid children come home with completely failing report cards, cause for celebration. The Stupids plan a family party and invite all their relatives. It's a costume party, but none of the invited guests dress up--not that you'd notice. It's a lighthearted diversion, a book that kids will enjoy reading with a parent or on their own. Recommended for purchase for all school and public library collections. ( )
