Peanut Butter and Homework Sandwiches

Illustrated by Jack E. Davis
Martin MacGregor is having one rotten week! First, his substitute teacher, Mrs. Payne, gives out mountains of homework. And when Martin's dog literally eats his homework, little does he know it's only the beginning of his troubles. Martin's homework ends up in the washing machine, goes to kindergarten with his little sister, and blows onto the roof of the school. Martin just can't catch a break!

But with some creativity and a positive attitude, Martin finds his own way to turn homework into fun-and turn it in on time!

New York Times bestselling illustrator Jack E. Davis's vibrant and detailed artwork gives life to a funny, lively story that is sure to resonate with anyone who has ever felt what it's like to show up unprepared- even when it's not your fault.
Jack E. Davis has illustrated two of Daniel Pinkwater's books: Yo-yo Man and The Picture of Morty and Ray. Other books illustrated by him include John Lithgow's New York Times bestseller Marsupial Sue, Margi Palatini's Bedhead, and Dan Greenburg's series The Zack Files. The New York Society of Illustrators bestowed its Gold Medal Award for Humor on him. Davis lives in Port Townsend, Washington. View titles by Jack E. Davis
