Parts (Picture Puffins)
by Tedd Arnold
from Puffin
First, his hair started falling out. Then skin started peeling from his toes. Some stuffing came out of his belly button, and a piece of something gray and wet-his brain?-fell out of his nose. Is this normal? Or is this boy coming unglued? With a perfect combination of humor and grossness, this look at one boy's farfetched fears will have readers laughing their heads off!
"A zany, ultimately reassuring take on something that may indeed be a child's bugaboo." -Booklist
