Sing Out, Irene
by James Marshall
Best known for his canon of classic hilarious children’s books, including favorites like GEORGE AND MARTHA, MISS NELSON, and THE STUPIDS, James Marshall has no rival when it comes to goofy fun. With the same silly spirit and charm, he presents four expressive stories about four little troubles. Marshall fans will cheer the return of these four little gems, out-of-print since 1987. These books, previously available as the boxed set FOUR LITTLE TROUBLES, are now back in print and available separately. Each small book, in a new paperboard format, will undoubtedly ease the troubles facing all young children.
