The Stupids Die

Bibliographic Information: Allard, H. (1981). The Stupids Die. Illus. James Marshall. New York, NY: Houghton Mifflin Company.

Brief Annotation: The Stupids experience a power outage while watching TV and thought they had all died and gone to heaven. It wasn't until Grandfather Stupid came for a visit that the stupids realize they are still in their very own living room.

Genre: Picture Book

Grade Level: K-3
Readers who will like this: Anyone who needs a good laugh.

Response/Rating (1-4): 3, Although this was a funny book that pokes fun at societal norms, I don't think it would be appropriate for all ages. I felt like the humor would be better understood by adults or mature audiences.

One question you would ask before a read aloud: How many of you have heard about the Stupids?
