How would you describe your family?
When line drawings of her family don’t really describe what the people (and pets) are like, the narrator tries words instead. She uses similes to describe each member of her family and the results are hilarious! After reading the picture book My Dog is as Smelly as Dirty Socks by Hanoch Piven, you may want to try describing your family in the same wacky way!
