Molly McDougal Montgomery McGrath and Other Stories to Make You Laugh is an entertaining, funny book that contains four different stories. The first one, Molly McDougal Montgomery McGrath, is about a girl who hates to take baths. After a strange turn of events, will she still have to take one? Bermuda Shorts shares the story of a boy who receives a ridiculous pair of Bermuda shorts from his aunt and uncle. He refuses to wear them at first, but will he eventually like them? The Beast, The Frog, My Friend and I is a silly story about secret keeping. The last tale, Fedora Flats is a hilarious story about a town that adores hats. The townspeople convert the mayor to a hat lover after he does something unkind. Filled with rhyming fun, these stories are sure to make you laugh, and maybe, just maybe, they’ll turn you against taking a bath.   

Opinion: 

This book is well written and seems to be geared toward 5-8 year olds. However, even as a 12-year-old reader, it still made me laugh. There are four stories total, and each one rhymes impeccably. With the exception of the first story, the main characters are hard to distinguish; I felt the author could have said their names or stated their genders. Beautiful artwork helps the reader vividly imagine every detail of the book. Molly McDougal Montgomery McGrath and Other Stories to Make You Laugh certainly lives up to its title. If you’re looking for a funny, quick and easy read, this book is the one for you!
