| Book 17 |
I want to meet Jon Agee and the notion is solely based on his books. He writes some of the most imaginative, unhinged, perfectly-tuned-to-children stories and
this is a perfect example. A boy picks up a rhinoceros from his local exotic pet store. The rhinoceros doesn't really
do anything and the boy starts to feel disappointed in his decision. A pet trainer asks how good the rhino is at popping balloons and poking holes in kites. The story takes a turn. And the reader is left with a sense of wonder. Very excellent stuff indeed.
Hear Jon Agee describe the story himself here:
