"This sprightly paced tale amiably nudges kids whose direction-following skills need some honing." --Publishers Weekly
"Buddy's father had a beautiful big nose. He was a great sniffer. Buddy's mother had beautiful big teeth. She was a great chomper. Buddy had beautiful big ears. It didn't matter." When someone says squash, Buddy hears wash. Tomatoes, you say? He buys potatoes. One day--because he didn't listen--Buddy accidentally ends up at Scruffy Varmint's scary cave. Unfortunately, he doesn't listen to Scruffy, either...and almost ends up as bunny stew! This delightful cautionary tale is now part of a fun 8 x 8 hardcover series about life lessons.
