Albert's Almost Amazing Adventure

Albert's vacation was amazing-or so he thought. To friends, his time in Maine was boring. Dull. Lame. They've got a more vivid and exciting idea of what Albert could-and should-have done on his trip. But Albert might just have a surprise for his friends, after all. Marty Kelley tells this wonderful read-aloud story in a fresh and imaginative way, contrasting panels of black-and-white charcoal drawings of dull old Albert with wonderful color spreads of what Albert's friends imagine for his summer adventures. Did Albert really tussle with ninjas and parlay with pirates? Or did he spend his time in Maine in the most boring ways imaginable? What really made his amazing summer vacation so amazing?
