About This Book
A class field trip to a farm descends into hilarious chaos when Jimmy brings his pet boa constrictor along. Told in reverse as a girl recounts the increasingly absurd events to her mother, the story spirals from a snake eating the wash to cows on the bus and an egg-throwing showdown.
Why We Love This
Kids absolutely roar with laughter at the escalating mayhem, and the clever backwards storytelling keeps them hooked from start to finish.
