A delightful picture book that is equal parts silly and thoughtful, perfect for read-aloud parties and library-going parties and learning-to-be-friends parties.

They can make a party out of anything.
Sour milk? PARTY! Hole in your pants? PARTY!
Now meet Horace. He’s a party pooper. “You can’t have so many parties!” he says.
SCREEEECH. Could Horace be right?
