About the Book
"On moving day, Danielle's mom and dad are busy packing boxes. "Danielle," says her mom,"don't just stand there, do something. Go take care of the little kids." So Danielle does. She finds Julianne playing with her dolls, carefully puts her in a big box with some towels and tapes it up. Then she goes to find Christopher, Rylan and Laurin, and she takes care of them, too. As the moving truck is leaving, her mom says, "Danielle, you've been such a help. You've kept the little kids so quiet! Where are they?" "On the truck, of course!" says Danielle. "Oh, no!" say her parents and they all get in the car and chase the truck to the new house. Danielle listens to all the boxes finds her little brothers and sisters and lets them out of their boxes. And then they all stay out of Mom's hair while she's unpacking, because the little kids spend the next few days chasing Danielle around, trying to put HER in a box."--Book Synopsis
Moving day has never been so much fun!
Moving day is never easy, especially when there are little kids around. Mom and Dad can really use big sister Danielle's help in taking care the little kids. And she knows just how to keep them out of the way -- pack them up with all of the stuff!
When the family arrives at their brand-new home, and the kids are unpacked -- well, let's just say that they are ready to take care of Danielle, too!
This story was inspired by a family that Robert Munsch once stayed with in Montreal, Quebec -- which had five children and had moved to a new house only days before! This funny tale is for all kids, especially those who have dealt with the stress of a big move. And even more especially for those who have dreamt about turning the tables on an older sibling's pranks.
