Cousin Clara's cottage was consumed by crocodiles! So begins this new classic--a dark-ish tale of a boy who keeps receiving hideous sweaters from his well-meaning cousin. Amusing language, delightful illustrations, and a hint of the ol' Edward Gorey combine to make this irresistible for older picture book readers. Recommended for ages 5 to 10. ( )

I laughed out loud a couple of times. This one is real fun and would be great for story time. ( )

This book is about a kid who's cousin enjoys kitting sweaters. Lester tries to embrace the sweater but just can't find himself to like it. This can be relatable to children who are expected to wear clothes they may not like. ( )

In this book Lester has a cousin that moves in with him and likes knitting sweaters. Throughout the whole book he tries to get rid of the sweaters because he hates them. This is a very relatable story for children and the pictures are very colorful. ( )

Sweet, charming, and funny ( )
