Stuck at home with her mom and her new sibling, Sally heads for the swamp with her fishing pole and bike. What she discovers, in the form of a slimy, slithery Some-Thing, is a new best friend. Mud pies, burping contests, snail racing--and sensational, eerily beautiful artwork deliver plenty of kid appeal.
"O'Connor uses comic-book-style artwork and brief text to explore a common childhood theme. Young listeners are sure to enjoy Sally's tentative first steps toward friendship and appreciate that Mom doesn't attempt to micromanage the situation." -- Booklist
