Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Gaspard and Lisa, best friends, are stuck inside Lisas grandmothers house one rainy afternoon with nothing to do. They try to bake a cake, until Grandma sees the mess theyve made in the kitchen. Then, they start a game of tennis in the dining room, but Dad doesnt like that idea at all. Turning the bedroom into a haunted house is not a big hit with Mom. Finally, Gaspard and Lisa decide to put a puzzle together. Hopefully, Grandma wont mind if they cut up her rabbit-and-pheasant poster and put it back together again. . . .

Synopsis:

Best friends Gaspard and Lisa are stuck inside Lisa's grandmother's house one rainy afternoon with nothing to do. As they unsuccessfully engage in activities in an attempt to alleviate their boredom, the soon find a perfect solution. Full color.
