Description
A hilariously punny read-aloud for fans of The Bad Seed and The Very Impatient Caterpillar!
Myles Porcini loves to have fun. He loves his forest school, but why is being a mushroom so much work? Myles would rather daydream. But when Myles leads the other mushrooms astray, he learns there may be more to life than just being a fun guy.
Full of engaging puns and laugh-out-loud jokes, The Fun Guy is an excellent read-aloud. Fans of The Food Group series are sure to devour this comical adventure!
