Sophie’s bad habit is her parents’ bane. That finger even has a name, Tim. Tim feels right at home up there and makes himself a fine comfy palace. Even even invites friends over sometimes. One day Sophie looks in the mirror and realizes her nose really has grown HUGE! After a good talking to with Tim, Sophie realizes things need to change.

Gross and hilarious all at the same time! I can’t remember a more clever book to hopefully encourage anyone to stop picking their nose!
