I Want Something Else
by Karin Mackenzie


Little Brother is back…but this time Big Sister and Grandpa are in on the action! Every morning, Grandma and Grandpa count their blessings. Then, as paper carriers, they count papers. In this story, Little Brother is counting on Grandma caving in to his persistent whining. Will Grandma, Grandpa, and Big Sister’s camping weekend be ruined? The story uses repetitive language, numbers and two-tiered words. Extras include: campfire recipes and an entire section on debunking counting!

Her miracle husband, their four amazing children and remarkable spouses, and nine phenomenal grandchildren are constant sources of inspiration.
