Wake Me Up in 20 Coconuts! (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780316311960)

This hilarious picture book follows a wannabe know-it-all terrified of losing his smarty pants reputation in the eyes of his friends, by bestselling Geisel-Award winning creator Laurie Keller

The helpful KNOW-IT-ALL in apartment 2C can answer any question. He's such a wealth of information, and all his neighbors depend on him. But one day he is asked a question that he just doesn't understand. How can 2C help his neighbor and also protect his smarty-pants reputation if he doesn't know what the question means?

This irresistible story reinforces that it's okay--in fact, it's actually a very good thing--to say "I don't know." Asking questions leads to discovery, understanding, and insight. In her signature humorous and imaginative style, Laurie Keller takes the embarrassment out of admitting that you don't know something and proves how helpful it can be!
