A little girl is playing with her toys and is less than thrilled when her mother tells her to clean up. As she struggles through the chore, a giant ogre tears through the town, viewing all things in his path as his own personal playthings.

This is a unique twist on a child learning their lesson by seeing someone else behave the same way they did. In this case, the ogre doing a slapdash attempt at tidying up makes the little girl realize that her own behavior wasn't the best.

The illustrations are colorful and eye-catching, with tons of small details to pore over. The text is all contained within dialogue bubbles and uses a fairly limited vocabulary, making this book ideal for young readers who are beginning to read on their own or with some assistance. ( )
