Awardwinning and bestselling illustrator Albert Lorenzs picture book The Exceptionally, Extraordinarily Ordinary First Day of School is the funny story of one boys creative solution to being nervous attending a new school.Often hilarious . . . A dizzying amount of text and art on each spreadno shortage of fodder for readers whose tastes gravitate toward the strange and surreal. Publishers WeeklyOn the first day back to school from summer vacation, John is the new kid. When the librarian asks him if the school is any different from his last one, he begins a wildly imaginative story about what it was like. Well, I came from pretty far away. We had to travel down crocodileinfested rivers, fly in a hotair balloon across a vast jungle filled with wild beasts, and then hire a car to get there.What follows are hilarious scenarioshis old school bus was a safari jeep pulled by wild creatures, the school was a castle, and the lunch menu included worms! His imagination wins him the attention and awe of his librarian and peers, setting the tone for a compelling story about conquering the fears of being a new kid, as well as the firstday jitters that many children experience.Bordering each page are oftenhilarious definitions of items featured in Lorenzs frenetic scenes (School busA terrorfilled nightmare on wheels . . . Life only gets worse from here on out), which are sprinkled with speech bubbles. The overthetop illustrations, reminiscent of the work of MAD magazines early artists, bring the story to life.This is no ordinary picture book. Young readers will be shocked, educated, and amused by the funfilled art, the wild stories, and the outrageous humor and slang. So much fun in one book!
