Minn and Jake's Almost Terrible Summer

There are a few things / about your best friend

that you can only learn / when you see where he's from.

Minn knew / that Jake was from the city.

But she didn't know / that his grandmother was Korean.

That he liked taking bubble baths. / That his brother, Soup,

might be an eating champion. / That Jake was a cheater,

and that he had a . . . / girlfriend?!

There are some things / about your best friend

that it's better not / to know. Bouncing free verse and playful black-and-white illustrations combine to make this a charming follow-up to Minn and Jake. Minn and Jake's Almost Terrible Summer is a 2009 Bank Street - Best Children's Book of the Year.
