Moms have lots of rules. Rules that make NO SENSE.
But what if. . . Moms don't realize how silly their rules are? There are perfectly good reasons for running through the living room, sucking your thumb, or any number of things. Moms just don't THINK about beehives in beds, meals with passports, or applesauce having elbows. Mom always says. . . well lots of things really. But what if. . . the rules make no sense?
Elbows in My Applesauce is a look into the whimsical and absurd scenarios that make the traditional rules of childhood obsolete. Created for the little loophole finders of the world, you are encouraged to imagine the improbable and impossible scenarios that challenge if Mom really knows what she is talking about when she says you should stay in bed or finish your dinner.
For every parent who has heard ". . . but. . ." and every child who has wondered ". . . what if. . .", this story speaks to the ridiculous and rebellious side of us all.
