A brand-new look for a classic story. First published in 1979, this was the first of Robert Munsch’s oral stories to be turned into a book. Since then, it has made countless children (and adults) all around the world laugh out loud. When Jule Ann goes outside, a mud puddle jumps on her and gets her dirty all over. No sooner does her mother scrub her clean than she ventures out again, only to be pounced upon by the pesky mud puddle. The cycle continues until finally Jule Ann gets the better of the mud puddle with cheerful ingenuity and two bars of smelly yellow soap. Lively, clever artwork by award-winning illustrator Dusan Petricic gives this bestselling picture book a fresh and energetic look that will charm a new generation of young readers.

Originally published in 1979, Munsch’s classic story of splashy muck gets great new illustrations that show a small kid’s standoffs with a sly mud puddle. After her mother brings Julie Ann clean new clothes, she buttons them up carefully and walks outside, where a mud puddle jumps on her––from a tree, a gutter—again and again. The spacious line-and-watercolor pictures with lots of white space show Julie Ann neat and tidy, then completely filthy, even up her nose. Perhaps worst of all, Mom scrubs off all the mud in the bath until Julie Ann is red all over. Finally, Julie Ann works out a great defense; she lures the mud puddle and destroys him with a bar of yellow soap. As much as the small kid’s triumph, young preschoolers will love the mucky action and detail. Preschool-Kindergarten. --Hazel Rochman
