Scritch- Scratch a Perfect Match by Kimberly Marcus - ESSENTIAL

Marcus, Kimberly Scritch-Scratch a Perfect Match illustrated by Mike Lester 32 pg. G.P. Putnam's Sons, 2011. PICTURE BOOK. $16.99. How can something so tiny cause so much chaos?! When a little bitty flea lands on a stray dog, chaos ensues until the magic flea powder is found. Luckily that little flea has a knack for bringing together new friends! 
Not only am I completely crazy about the zany illustrations, but the author makes this such an exciting book to read with all of the ZIP! ZANGS! and WHABANGS! The rhyming flows well and the onomatopoeia adds flavor to the story. This book is the perfect match for any read aloud! EL-ESSENTIAL. Whitney, Library-Teacher.
