| Publisher Description: It's a factual face-off in this superhero picture book from all-star Peter Catalanotto. Question Boy wants answers. He lives for them. But none of the town's action heroes--Oil Man, Paperboy, Police Woman--can satisfy Question Boy's heroic need to know Enter Little Miss Know-It-All. She has an answer for every who-what-where-when-and-how...and what she doesn't know she simply makes up. And what about you? Ready for a wrangle? Keen on a quibble? Then come along to the town park to cheer the two of them on Vibrant, rich illustrations merge fantasy with reality in this exploration of questions, answers, and what it means to be right. |
