Abstract:
Every once in a while, a children’s title comes along so innovative that it freshens the genre. THE TOTALLY MEANINGLESS SUMMER! is one such book. Written by two extraordinary elementary school students, ten year olds Amber Pantaleo and Jenny Mahoney, and illustrated by Amber’s eight year old sister, Valerie Pantaleo, this whimsical and delightful tale is a magical romp through the imaginations of babes. This book hints at what it would be like If ALICE IN WONDERLAND had been written by Dr. Seuss. Published just as written, it is a story that will be enjoyed equally by readers of all ages.
