How do you get gum out of your hair? From the madcap mind of award-winning children’s author Adam Rex comes a book about how the best intentions lead to the worst (and funniest) ideas!
So, you got bubblegum in your hair–and before you know it, a pair of scissors, some butter, your rabbit, and the cat are also stuck up there. And to make matters worse, it’s picture day! With each turn of the page in On Account of the Gum, the situation gets stickier, sillier, and more desperate. Kids will love this all-too-familiar story, told in verse and propelled by charming illustrations, about one family’s best efforts to get the gum un-stuck . . . by any means necessary. “Adam Rex is one of the best writers making picture books today, and . . . On Account of the Gum just might be his best picture book yet.”–Mac Barnett, New York Times bestselling author of the Caldecott Honor books Sam and Dave Dig a Hole and Extra Yarn CLASSIC STORY: Readers of all ages will instantly relate to this problem that kids have faced since the invention of bubble gum.
