Book Review:
Louis is a little boy who is always up to something. Unfortunately, it’s usually the wrong something! He is always on the move and you know what? It’s hard to be a verb! This wonderful book tells a story that is familiar to many children who struggle with hyperactivity issues. It won the Mom’s Choice Award for Excellence and is a necessary addition to any library. Do you have a kid in your life who just can’t stop moving? You need this book!
