Gnome by Fred Blunt - ESSENTIAL

Gnome by Fred Blunt. PICTURE BOOK. Andersen Press (Lerner), 2020. $18. 9781541596245

BUYING ADVISORY: Pre-K, EL (K-3) - ESSENTIAL

AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH

Mr. Gnome doesn’t need you around him – please do not disturb. NO is definitely his favorite word. In fact, he’ll say no even when he really, really, really wants to say yes – with disastrous consequences.

I refuse to give away the ending of this very clever story. I didn’t predict it and I don’t think you will either.  Once you are done you will reread immediately to see if you could have predicted its ultimate path.
