More from Mo...


Ahh, nothing like a great villian.  A villian who is a know-it-all, annoying, needs-to-be-right kid.  A villian with a FANTASTIC NAME.

Reginald von Hoobie Doobie

That's right, Reginald von Hoobie Doobie.

Go ahead, try saying it.  Reginald von Hoobie Doobie.

Maybe try a funny accent.  Try saying it like it's the punchline of a joke.  Say it as fast as you can.  It's a truly brilliant name.  And one that had my daughter rolling with laughter all afternoon.  While eating pasta in her highchair, hours after we read the book, she was saying "Hoobie-Doobie" to herself and chuckling.

Warning:  This book may make you crave chocolate-chip cookies.  In fact, maybe make sure you have some in the house before making your way to the library or bookstore for this book.  But then enjoy!  Enjoy the story, enjoy the villian, and enjoy the cookies!
