Always Listen to Your Mother

Ernest is good boy. He does what his mother asks, helps her with household chores -and never has any fun. When a new boy moves in next door, Ernest's mother encourages her son to make friends. Nice children always do. But the new neighbors seem a little bit...strange. In fact, you might call them downright monstrous. And listening to his new friend Vlapid's mother means Ernest must do things he'd never dare try at home. And it's fantastic!

Florence Parry Heide and Kyle M. Stone combine forces to show the little-known joys of doing as you're told.
