Description
This is the story of Imelda, who was small. And I don't mean just a little bit small. I mean tiny. Imelda was so tiny that she slept in a tiny shoebox, and had to stand on three books to look in a full-length mirror.
"But this is outrageous!" cried Imelda's father. "It's off to Dr Anderson!"
And so they set out to discover why Imelda is so small. It just doesn't seem reasonable. She brushes her hair and teeth every day. Her socks always match. So what is the reason and what can be done about it?
Readers can find the answers in this warm and unusual tale, peopled with wild and funny characters. Lurie's zany text combines with Terry Denton's expressive artwork to narrate Imelda's story in unforgettable style.
