What in the world is Robin going to do with the baby she finds in her sandbox? "Murmel, murmel, murmel," is all Robin hears coming from a hole in her sandbox. When she reaches down and out pops a baby, she finds herself in a real fix: who will take care of it? Robin's too little! Off she goes, searching her neighborhood for someone who needs a baby. The woman with seventeen cats doesn't want the baby. Nor does the grumpy man by the bus stop. It looks as though all hope is lost, until a friendly truck driver passes by. He offers to trade his truck for the baby--an exchange Robin can't refuse.

The hilarious story of a young boy's refusal to wear his new snowsuit has been making readers laugh since its original publication 25 years ago. This latest edition, with revised text plus new artwork from Michael Martchenko will make the familiar story even more appealing to a new generation of young readers. Wilful young Thomas refuses to wear his new winter snowsuit, despite the pleas of his mother, his teacher and even his head teacher. When everyone's best efforts lead only to comedic chaos and cross-dressing confusion, they all agree it's best to let Thomas suit himself. This is marvellous mischief from master storyteller Robert Munsch.
