Synopsis
Whether it's waking up to find toads in their shoes, becoming trapped on the roof, or searching for cheese when their cow only makes lemonade, the Pepin family always seems to get into the most bizarre scrapes. Lucky for them, they have an author with large psychic antennae and great problem-solving listeners who can join the Pepins on their hilarious adventures. And they need all the help they can get!
In this joyfully absurd romp Polly Horvath is in top comedic form.

From AudioFile
The Pepin family does, indeed, find itself in an endless stream of preposterous predicaments. How can a responsible family provide appropriate hospitality when its cow suddenly dispenses lemonade instead of milk? What is the appropriate phrase with which to inform a very fine neighbor that he's fallen in love with a barber pole? The Pepin family's ridiculous vignettes will be enjoyed by elementary-age listeners while the book's impressive vocabulary will be appreciated by teachers and parents. Julie Halston's reading of this odd story evokes the image of a librarian reading to young children. Perhaps the story could have been more lively if it had been narrated by someone with a knack for accents and goofy voices.
