Matty's family loves to make slime, and he wants to show his class how to make slime.  He brings the ingredients to school, and during art his teacher lets him make slime.  He dumps in the glue, and the baking soda.  But he forgot to bring the saline.  It gets all over the table. HIs classmates throw in everything they can think of to make it into slime.  Soon it is all over the room including the ceiling.  Is Matty in big trouble?

So Much Slime is a hilarious read as we wonder how the ongoing mess will ever be cleaned up. We all can relate to a show and tell gone wrong.  I was amused by Retz's fun and colorful illustrations.
