Edwurd Fudwupper Fibbed Big: Explained by Fannie Fudwupper (Storyopolis Books)

by Berkeley Breathed

Edwurd Fudwupper Fibbed Big: Explained by Fannie Fudwupper (Storyopolis Books) Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Fannie Fudwupper's big brother, Edwurd, spends his time cooking up big fibs full of phooey and letting them rip. But one day, Edwurd tells such a whopping lie that the army, the air force, and the dogcatcher are called to reverse the damage!

Review:

"This is a highly moralistic tale, but a wildly zany one, full of wordplay, alliteration, and outrageously expressive watercolor-and-acrylic illustrations. The cartoon talent of the artist shines through his unique perspectives, grotesque characters, and dramatic color contrasts. What fun...and that's no lie." School Library Journal

Review:

"The only thing wackier than the story line is the author's bold, full-color artwork. Kids will love it." Teacher Magazine

Review:

"Edwurd Fudwupper Fibbed Big is a book that will entertain readers of all ages.... Just like Dr. Seuss's Oh, The Places You'll Go! is a staple for graduation gift-giving, Breathed's Edwurd Fudwupper Fibbed Big is bound to become a special-occasion present, too. The issues of honesty and sibling loyalty are dealt with in a fanciful, fun fashion." The Five Owls, starred review

Review:

"Edwurd Fudwupper is the kind of intriguing and endearing universal character that can only come from the mind of Berkley Breathed." Nickelodeon
