Gotta Go!

Ages 5 to 7, Grades K to 2

Will Owen be left high and dry?

Owen should have listened but instead he’s now squirming: he’s just gotta go! Luckily for him, Mom and grandpa are there to offer advice and show him silly tricks that can help flush the urge away. FRANK VIVA, the acclaimed designer and author of A Trip to the Bottom of the World with Mouse and Young Frank, Architect, doesn't mind getting his feet wet as he dives into what can be a scary topic for children and turns it into a hilarious and liberating romp.
