I first read this book to my son and my daughter who were 4 and 6 at the time. Now 15+ years later, I am now buying this book for my granddaughters. My only regret is that I won't be able to read it to them for the first time.I read this story in my son's second grade reading book and instantly wanted to know more about the author. She has a very original style of writing. The story is about a boy who is sent back and forth from room to room while his grandmother, mother and sister are getting ready for a wedding. At each stop, he is handed another item to carry and ends up looking like a bride himself. You will fall in the love with the way the family talks. I was very disappointed to find that the book was out of print.
