Its a bird! Its a plane! No, wait . . . its a runaway booger!
From Lee Wildish, acclaimed childrens book illustrator of the New York Times bestselling How to Babysit a Grandpa, How to Babysit a Grandma, and How to Catch Santa, and Pulitzer Prize-winning author Matt Richtel comes a hilarious new picture bookabout a topsy-turvy day with an unlikely and disgusting turn of events.
Like such silly favorites as Walter the Farting Dog, Runaway Booger will spark giggles and demands to read it again.
Matt Richtel has been a reporter at the New York Times since 2000. He won the 2010 Pulitzer Prize for National Reporting for a series that exposed the pervasive risks of distracted driving and its root causes, prompting widespread reform. He is the author of A Deadly Wandering, which the New York Times Book Review declared, "deserves a spot next to Fast Food Nation and To Kill a Mockingbird in America's high school curriculum"; it was named a "best book of the year" by the San Francisco Chronicle, Christian Science Monitor, Kirkus Reviews, and Winnipeg Free Press. He has appeared on NPR's Fresh Air, PBS Newshour, and other major media outlets. He lives in San Francisco, California.
