Not Too Late to Catch the Latest Exquisite Corpse Adventure!!




NCBLA Board Members and Award-Winning Authors Patricia and Fredrick McKissack Write the Latest Exquisite Corpse Adventure with a Marvelous Illustration by James Ransome!

"As Genius Kelly built up speed, heading for Max, Nancy stuck out her foot and tripped the pig who slipped, slid, and fell flat on his nose. That gave Joe, who had recovered from his spill, just enough time to snatch up the baby and run into the woods. Genius Kelly followed, snorting and sniffing and hurling insults and threats like lightning bolts."
