George and Martha

A classic collection of funny and insightful tales of friendship, from the one-and-only James Marshall. Like all best friends, George and Martha do everything together. As readers will soon recognize, even in a close friendship, privacy is important, practical jokes can sometimes backfire, and among other things, pouring split pea soup into your loafers to spare the chef’s feelings is not the best-laid plan.

Each of these five brief tales is filled with humor, and James Marshall’s drawings are guaranteed to spark feelings of empathy, delight, and self-recognition. Recommended for ages 4-7.
