Naked Mole Rat Gets Dressed

by Mo Willems Published by Hyperion Books for Children 2009 34 Pages Genre:Picture Book Summary: Wilbur is a naked mole rat... well he is a mole and a rat. He actually likes to wear clothes. All the other naked mole rats try to get him to be normal and be naked with them, but he will not! They tell him that if he is not going to be naked he needs to just open a clothes store, being sarcastic of course. But he does, but he has no customers. So they decide he is now a problem. So they take Wilbur to see Grand-pah. They tell him that Wilbur said why not wear clothes? So Grand-pah brings everyone together to make an announcement. When everyone comes in they see that Grand-pah is wearing a suit. He says why not wear clothes? So Wilbur reopens his shop and does quite well. My Reaction: How stinkin funny is that! I think this book is a very funny way to get around saying, don't be like everyone else! It's okay! Just put some clothes on!!! Potential Problems: Everyone is naked! recommendations: This is a great book for a laugh. I would almost want to use this as an after bath-time story.
