Bootsie Barker is a tiny terror who kicks dogs, sticks her tongue out, and throws temper tantrums. But when she turns her nastiness on her playmate, our young heroine gives Bootsie a good taste of her own medicine.

Industry Reviews

"Bottner smoothly adopts the understandably anxious child's point of view, while Rathmann contributes formidable, hyper-bright watercolors that echo the story's nightmarish but hilarious exaggeration." --Publishers Weekly "The colorful cartoon and wash drawings, filled with amusing detail, perfectly express the terroristic tactics and the narrator's frustration. When Bootsie is on a rampage, even the stuffed animals cover their eyes. A book that treats a common and often troubling situation with an entertaining but effective touch." --School Library Journal
