Book Description
for Naked! by Michael Ian Black and Debbie Ridpath Ohi
From Cooperative Children's Book Center (CCBC)
In a scenario that will be familiar to many families, a small child runs naked through his house after a bath, and he couldn’t be happier. “I should dress like this all the time.” His imagination runs wild with the possibilities — naked at school, naked on the playground, naked doing the hokey pokey. “Pants? Who needs pants? Or shirts or shoes or capes. Wait….Capes???” It turns out there are some things even more appealing than nudity. The humor in Michael Ian Black’s story is extended by Debbie Ridpath Ohi’s blithe illustrations that further capture the controlled chaos of family life and the irrepressible spirt of a child with a gleam in the eye. (Ages 3–6)
