The Happy Hocky Family

The Happy Hocky Family Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

In a witty and whimsical style, the author describes the daily events of the Hocky family — baby Hocky's balloon, brother Henry chasing sister Holly with a dead spider, Holly waking Henry with her tuba.

Review:

"Step aside, Dick and Jane, or the very hilarious Happy Hocky Family might just run you over....Each punchline is delivered with a master comedian's timing. Go, Smith, go." Publishers Weekly

Review:

"Smith's story is quirky parody on a beginning reader. The book requires a certain level of sophistication, but it may prove to be the funniest family book you ever read." Children's Literature
