A Perfect Mess by Steve Green - ESSENTIAL


Breen, Steve A Perfect Mess. PICTURE BOOK. Dial Books For Young Readers (Penguin), 2016 $16.99.

Henry loves to play and often gets messy.  But for school picture day, Henry is determined to stay clean.  In his effort to keep his clothes their best, he inadvertently makes it impossible for any of his classmates to remain clean.  

As the picture is snapped and Henry's goal is achieved, his classmates reward him with a group hug and his once clean shirt becomes a perfect mess. This was such a cute story.  Children will easily relate to the dilemma of taking the perfect picture for school and all the funny mishaps that can occur.
