Publisher Description
What happens when the bossiest cousin ever comes to visit for the weekend? This classic story about sharing and accepting others is a funny and realistic look at handling a friend or family member who isn't so good at sharing.
Wendell was spending the weekend at Sophie's house. Playing house, Wendell was the father, the mother, and the children; Sophie was the dog. Playing bakery, Wendell was the baker; Sophie got to be the sweet roll. But when Wendell gave her a new hairdo with shaving cream, it was the last straw, and Sophie made up a game that left Wendell speechless for a time—and won the day for friendship.Download and start listening now!
“The mice are lively, expressive, and appealing. Children may secretly wish that they could be as daring as Wendell, but they will also rejoice when Sally finally asserts herself.”
— School Library Journal
