Beware! This book has rules. You must follow all the rules. If you break the rules . . . Dennis the monster will eat you. And you don't want to be Dennis-food-do you Hilariously funny, with a timely message of mindful listening, The Book of Rules invites readers to get their sillies out before it's time to focus and listen to directions. And you better get started, because Dennis can't wait to eat-or, um-meet you!

"This fills the bill for teachers or librarians looking for an active storytime choice . . . A guidebook that many kids won't mind following." --Kirkus Reviews
