Mr. All-This-And-That

He’s standing on tip-toe, trying to peer in! Joy is not sure what to do about the rumpled and frumpy monster in mismatched slippers that has just shown up at her front door. In Mr. All-This-And-That, Joy imagines all the dreadful things that could happen if she chooses to open the door for her “smallish in stature, nose bigger than most” visitor. But Mr. All-This-And-That proves to be much more fun than Joy thought possible. And in the end, Joy learns that friendship can be found in even the most mismatched people.

Mr. All-This-And-That, a 405-word picture book for ages 4 to 8 years, is a light-hearted rhyming story about first impressions, acceptance, and friendship.
