A brand-new adventure for Julius
The star of Julius, the Baby of the World now appears in this irresistible new board book. It’s almost time for the Halloween costume party, and Julius’s friends are due to arrive at any minute. The treat: Julius’s mother has baked delicious cupcakes—each with a candy corn on top. “You can’t eat the cupcakes yet,” she says to Julius. “They’re for the party.” So Julius decides to count the candy corn instead. The trick: Julius doesn’t count with his eyes—he counts by popping one candy corn after another into his mouth. Delicious! Caldecott Honor artist Kevin Henkes has stirred up a sweet Halloween story for the youngest of pranksters.
