Somebody named Amy MacDonald got it into her head to write three books about us all.

The first, No More Nice, is about Simon’s visit to our farm.

The second, No More Nasty, tells about when Mattie became Simon’s substitute teacher for a spell.

And the third, Too Much Flapdoodle, is about when Parker came to stay and had to rescue Mattie from some foolishness. Parker corrects some of her hearsay about his summer on his blog.

I haven’t read ‘em myself, but some fella named Kirkus has, and he thinks they’re a "read-aloud treat" that will have readers "laughing out loud." Sounds a little rude, if you ask me.

All of these books are available from a venerable publisher called Farrar Strauss & Giroux. Here are the funny little numbers to help you find the books.
