If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. After snagging his toe, Mr Nogginbody visits his local hardware shop in search of solutions. Armed with a shiny new hammer, he successfully fixes the nail protruding from his floor. But the satisfaction of his first repair carries him away and he figures that anything resembling a nail—from a lamp switch to a fire hydrant—can be fixed with a good whack. The results are predictably and theatrically disastrous until Mr Nogginbody arrives at a gentle awakening and recognises that not everything is a nail.

When Mr Nogginbody has to babysit, he thinks it should be straight-forward: give the child a chocolate drink so he’ll do his homework. Unfortunately for Mr N, he follows those steps in that order and the child refuses to study, teasing his sitter and jumping on the couch just out of reach. Determined to put a stop to the childish shenanigans, Mr Nogginbody jumps up after him. But he quickly discovers just how much fun being a kid can be.The ovoid hero of Mr. Nogginbody Gets a Hammer, which “has the timeless exuberance and psychological profundity of a great comedy” (Publishers Weekly, starred review), returns in another humorous tour de force from beloved picture book creator David Shannon. Grownupish grownup... What in the world does that mean?!

Laugh-aloud humor abounds when David can't resist bugging his big brother. In this funny romp, David careens from one mischievous antic to the next... until he finally wins his brother's approval.
