  • Tops & Bottoms

    Janet Stevens

    Hardcover (Harcourt Brace, March 29, 1995)

It’s all wonderful fun, and the book opens, fittingly, from top to bottom instead of from side to side, making it perfect for story-time sharing.”--BooklistThis title has been selected as a Common Core Text Exemplar (Grades 2-3, Stories)
