About the Book
"Originally published in the U.K. by Piccadilly Press under the title Marge and the great train rescue"-- Title page verso.Book Synopsis
The adventures of zany babysitter Marge continue in the third book of actress Isla Fisher's charming illustrated series, perfect for fans of Amelia Bedelia and Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle.
Marge, the rainbow-haired babysitter, returns! This tiny duchess has a trip planned for Jakey and Jemima Button--and she's going to break a lot of rules along the way.
In these three hilarious stories, a trip to the zoo with Marge seems like a perfect adventure. But it might turn out to be a perfect disaster! When Jakey's tooth goes missing, a train gets stopped by a ferocious beast, and a favorite orangutan can't be found, it seems as if everything will be ruined.
But if there's one thing Jakey and Jemima know, it's that even disasters are fun when Marge is in charge!
Review Quotes
Praise for MARGE IN CHARGE: "The short, funny adventures will appeal to new readers. This also works well as a read-aloud and is a great segue into the classic tales of another mischievous nanny, Mary Poppins."
-- School Library Journal
Praise for MARGE IN CHARGE AND THE STOLEN TREASURE: "The slapstick humor is right on target for the intended audience and...Jemima's first-person narration puts readers right into the action as Marge creates magic, fun, and resourcefulness wherever she goes." -- School Library Journal
