- Baker & Taylor
Causing low-level mayhem in her enthusiasm to help Mommy at the grocery store, little Roxy throws a high-energy fit of acrobatics when she decides she must have a certain cake from the bakery aisle, in a relatable story by the creator ofFive Minutes' Peace . - Baker & Taylor
When little Roxy goes grocery shopping with her mom she tries to be a good helper, until a piggy-face cake catches her attention and sets off a very loud, attention-grabbing bout of misbehavior. - Baker & Taylor
An outing to the grocery store quickly devolves into a power struggle between a frustrated mother rabbit and her exuberant toddler Ruby. - Random House, Inc.
From the creator of the beloved Large family comes a sympatheticâand simply hilariousâlook at a toddlerâs grocery-store tantrum.
One morning, Mom decides to take Roxy grocery shopping. âRoxy can help Mommy," she says cheerfully. Roxy makes a promising start, but when she squeezes the potato chip bag and rolls a can of beans across the floor, Mom is not pleased. âYouâre not being very helpful, Roxy," she says, plunking the child back in the grocery cart. âNot very helpful," Roxy agrees. But being agreeable lasts only as far as the bakery aisle, where the need for a certain piggy-face cake spurs a level of high-decibel determinationâand a display of headfirst acrobaticsâthat has onlookers staring in awe. With the signature humor that made Five Minutesâ Peace a classic, Jill Murphy escalates a toddler meltdown to its comical breaking point, leaving readers laughing and heaving a sigh of relief not to be driving (or riding in) that grocery cart.
