This title is suitable for ages 5 to 7 years. If you think you're busy, just take a look at Ernestine's week: tuba with Mr. Oompah, yodeling with Little Old Lady Hoo, yoga with Guru Prakesh Pretzel, and more. Her well-meaning, busy parents have packed Ernestine's after-school hours. But Ernestine is about to opt out and do what no Buckmeister has done before: JUST PLAY. "The Busy Life of Ernestine Buckmeister" hilariously captures the dilemma of today's over-scheduled child in riotous colour and absurd extremes. A delightful heroine, Ernestine will be sure to put "play" back on everyone's agenda, demonstrating the joy of play and the simple wonders of childhood. In our hustle-bustle society where parents and children often feel pressured, "The Busy Life of Ernestine Buckmeister" offers a refreshing alternative: Inhale...Exhale...PLAY!

"This book is a joyful and funny reminder to kids and parents alike about the importance and power of play..." Chr(45)Darell Hammond, New York Times best-selling author and CEO of KaBOOM!, a national non-profit dedicated to saving play' for America's children. - "...There's great energy in both Lodding's storytelling and Beaky's bright acrylic illustrations. The valuable lesson is all the more effective for being shown, and not preached..." Chr(45)Kirkus Reviews - "...Lodding's prose is studded with punny quips and names... Beaky provides acrylic caricatures that really take off once Ernestine and her nanny start to mix up her schedule..." Chr(45)Publishers Weekly - "Beautifully illustrated and charmingly written... a funny, warm-hearted and insightful story about one child's need and right to play Chr(45) and how she cleverly educates the adults around her about the importance in play in everyday life." Chr(45)Morgan Leichter-Saxby, London- and Cardiff-based lecturer on children's right to free, local, and open-ended play, and blogger at PlayEverything.
