Henry and Mudge and the Big Sleepover (Henry and Mudge Series #28)

by Cynthia Rylant Narrated by George Guidall

Overview

Henry is invited to a sleepover at his friend Patrick's house. His big, slobbering dog Mudge is invited, too. In fact, all the boys are bringing their dogs. Everyone will stay up late. Best of all, Henry says, there will be popcorn. Mudge gets very excited because popcorn is one of his favorites. When the night comes, the boys and dogs gather in Patrick's attic and have a great time. They play all kinds of games, but nobody can play with the bowling set, because a bulldog keeps stealing the pins. They eat pizza and watch a movie about giant lizards. And there is still lots of popcorn to eat before everybody falls asleep. Newbery Medal winner Cynthia Rylant has sold more than two million copies of her Henry and Mudge adventures, which comprise one of the most beloved beginning reader series of all time. Each story available from Recorded Books is warmly narrated by AudioFile Golden Voice George Guidall. "All libraries will want to add this book to their beginning-reader collections."-School Library Journal

Editorial Reviews

School Library Journal

K-Gr 2-During a sleepover, six boys and their dogs have the run of the attic at Patrick's house. They have a fine time with food, games, videos, and shadows made with their flashlights. Eventually the dogs crawl into their boys' sleeping bags, except for Mudge, who has one of his very own. The text and sentence structure seem simpler than some other Level 2 books, making this title one of the easier ones in the series. Stevenson's colorful cartoons capture the fun-filled antics of the active boys and their pets. All libraries will want to add this book to their beginning-reader collections.-Elaine Lesh Morgan, Multnomah County Library, Portland, OR Copyright 2006 Reed Business Information.
