If you've ever experienced the exhaustion of cleaning up after a tornadic mess-maker, you'll be able to relate to I MAKE MESSES!

Every time Dad turns his back, the daughter makes a mess--drawing on paper becomes drawing on her face and hands, which leads to finger painting with yogurt and making a gooey egg mess on the kitchen floor. At its worst, there is a rainbow of food colors on the kitchen floor.

Never fear, all you neat-nicks! Dad makes our young mess-maker clean up and take a bath. She promises, "No more messes," but that doesn't stop her from dreaming a very mushy, gushy, slimy, messy dream.

This book is part of Little-Brown Kids' "Just Being Me" series. An entertaining read--as long as you're prepared to discuss appropriate behaviors and responsibility!
