Every once and awhile, among the hoards of children's books out there, there comes one that is very funny and that can be used as a lesson in life. This is one of them.

William Bee has crafted a story that illustrates to a child how what they say and how they act can have consequences. Billy, it seems can be quite difficult to please and his answer to everything he shown is "whatever". His father, who seems very attentive, tries very hard to please young Billy to no avail. So when Billy gets into a bind his father reacts the way Billy has done throughout the whole book.

A very creative story and wonderful illustrations make this a winner.

Message:
[Parents] Be creative in the way you deal with your kids, just don't use large felines.
[Kids] What you say to, and how you treat, other people can come back to haunt you.
