Review

"Polacco's fantasy is a fun one, accompanied by her typically bright watercolor and pen drawings."

Publisher's note

How much TV is too much TV? The author tackles this timely question with her trademark humor and folksy charm in this fresh and funny parable. When Eli's eccentric Aunt Chip, who refuses to own a TV, discovers that her nephew and her neighbors don't remember how to read, she pulls the plug on the whole town--using the books that have been piled high to build a dam to spread the magic of reading. Full color.

Annotation

The people in Triple Creek just love to watch television. In fact, they watch TV constantly--while they're eating, working, playing, and even in school--all but Eli's Aunt Chip, who refuses to own a television. When she discovers that her nephew doesn't know how to read, she comes up with a daring plan to remind all of Triple Creek about the magic of reading. Color illustrations accompany the text.
