Book SynopsisSilliness takes center stage in this laugh-out-loud book from the creator of The Very Hungry Caterpillar?--now available as a board book!   Yes, there’s something strange, something funny and even downright preposterous on every page of this book. But it’s not a mistake – it’s nonsense!

Book SynopsisWhen an eight-year-old boy helps his uncle at his job as a plasterer, he takes a fancy to his workman''s apron with a pocket. As a result of his fascination, his aunt makes him an apron of his own and he spends a few days as his Uncle Adam''s assistant.
