{"product_id":"sloppy-joe-9780061710209","title":"Sloppy Joe","description":"\u003cp\u003eJoe is known for making a mess wherever he goes. From slurping and spilling to turning ordinary moments into comic chaos, his habits have earned him the nickname Sloppy Joe. Dave Keane's picture book follows this exuberant character as he discovers that changing his ways may be harder than it sounds. The humour comes from the gap between Joe's intentions and the untidy results that seem to follow him.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen Joe decides to become Neat Joe, the attempt creates a fresh set of complications. His family and friends are used to his familiar ways, and the story's situations build into a lively series of mishaps. When illness affects the household, Joe tries to help by making soup, but even a well-meant effort can become an adventure when Sloppy Joe is in charge. Denise Brunkus's energetic illustrations bring the mess, movement and personality of the story to life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book uses humour to explore everyday habits, family relationships and the process of trying something different. It does not turn its message into a lecture; instead, it invites children to laugh at Joe's mistakes while recognising the value of thoughtfulness and helping others. Sloppy Joe is well suited to read-aloud time with young children who enjoy funny characters, exaggerated situations and picture books full of visual detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dave Keane\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrator:\u003c\/strong\u003e Denise Brunkus\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e HarperCollins\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApprox.
