    When the arrival of Steve the snake scares the mice at Marnie’s Pizza House, the clever (and good-hearted) proprietor calls on the power of twisty-twirly dancing and an irresistibly cheesy delight.

    The inimitable Jarvis brings an especially silly story of unlikely friendship enhanced by a wildly intricate, energetic illustration style. At Marnie’s Pizza House, the boogie-woogie never stops, and any excuse is good for a party—a new hat, a lost sock, the fact that it’s Tuesday. Marnie doesn’t want anyone to feel left out! But when the Mousy Town alarm goes off in the middle of the upside-down party, all the revelers are suddenly quiet as a . . . well, you know. When hungry snake Steve invites the hapless mice to the opening of . . . his mouth, it’s time for Marnie to spring into action. What if she invites Steve to dance the crazy, tangly moves of the Zoobaloo? Could a tastier-than-a-mouse slice of cheesy pizza be far behind? Humor, friendship, and goodwill all party on in a story whose pages teem with details and funny asides begging many a revisit.
    Jarvis is the creator of the picture books The Boy with Flowers in His Hair; Thank You; Follow Me, Flo!; Tropical Terry; and Alan’s Big, Scary Teeth, among others. He is also the author-illustrator of a chapter-book series about Bear and Bird and the illustrator of Pick a Pine Tree, Pick a Pumpkin, Pick a Perfect Egg, and Together with You, all by Patricia Toht, as well as Oh, Are You Awake? by Bob Shea. An animator who has worked as a record jacket designer and an animation director, Jarvis lives in Manchester, England.
