Green Pants

Picture
Jameson really loves green pants, when he wears them he can do anything.  But when he is invited to be in his cousin's wedding, he is torn.  He really wants to be in the wedding, but he would have to wear a tuxedo, a black tuxedo.  So what will he do?  Will he brave the black pants and be in the wedding?  Or will he stick to his green pants?  It is a tough decision.  A really tough decision.  AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRGH!!!

Green Pants is published by Candlewick Press.  It is available at your local bookstore and online at Indiebound, Barnes & Noble, Target, and Amazon. 

Green Pants was a Chicago Public Library Best of the Best selection and an International Literacy Association Children's Choice.
In a starred review, Kirkus said, "this quirky kid and his loving family will instantly endear themselves to readers."
Here is an interview Kenneth did with Kirkus Reviews about Green Pants.
