review 1: A Perfectly Messed-Up Story by Patrick McDonnell gets well….a little messy. :DBetween bloops and blobs of peanut butter & jelly, drink rings and more--Louie tries to tell us his tale. A tale that shows readers of all ages that messes and mistakes happen in fiction and life. Life gets messy. It's not perfect. That’s what makes it interesting. The story, our story must go on! Through the stickiness! Through the drops, stains, and smears! Work through and with the messes in life.My nephew absolutely loved this story. Louie’s reaction to the messes and attempted clean-ups made him laugh and laugh. A very fun read that pulls kids into the story and mess.A joy to read out loud. Highly recommended.
review 2: Louie is enjoying telling this story. He's... more hopping along, singing and- wait. What's this?! Jelly! And Peanut butter? The chunky kind! Gah! Who is reading a book while eating?The story continues as Louie encounters spilled orange juice and coloring. Eventually Louie gives up. What's the point of trying to tell and enjoy a story if the reader is going to destroy it? In the end the story begins again by itself and Louie realizes that everything really will be okay.Except... Is that a coffee stain?!Hilarious! less
