<p><P><b>A joyous celebration of the young and young-at-heart<P></b>Tonight&#8217;s a special night. Robert is going to his first grownup party &#8211; a birthday celebration for Great-Gran Sadie, who is one hundred years old. Robert is so excited he feels like a firecracker about to go off. But once he arrives at the party, it&#8217;s hard to remember what to do when. &#8220;Don&#8217;t do that!&#8221; says Grandpa Jack. &#8220;Don&#8217;t do that!&#8221; says Uncle Phil. &#8220;Don&#8217;t do that!&#8221; says Cousin Sidney. But what will Great-Gran Sadie say?<P>How Robert discovers an unexpected kindred spirit comes to life in whimsical pictures that perfectly capture what it&#8217;s like to be small in a world of adults. This is one party no one will ever forget.</p><h3>Publishers Weekly</h3><p>For Robert, the young hero of this expert and empathic comedy of manners, an invitation to a fancy family party has its pros and cons. Being allowed to stay up way past pajama time, putting on smart-looking duds just like his daddy and goofing off in a stuffy men's room are all good; but being reprimanded at every turn with a whispered Don't do that! is no fun at all.
