It's Only Stanley

 By Jon Agee

Everyone in my house loves this book.  It even made some of us laugh.  It's well thought out.  It's in metered rhyme with no mistakes.  The pictures are entertaining.  So many wonderful things came together here.
 Look at the eyes on that dog.  The expressions everyone's faces are great.  The dad being unphased at each of Stanley's activities is what sells the joke.  He plays against the family, who are losing their minds.  It takes an insane turn at the end that I'm not going to spoil for once.

This book is a keeper.
