My Parents Won't Stop Talking! - Hardcover

by Emma Hunsinger (Author), Tillie Walden (Author), Emma Hunsinger (Illustrator)

A child's plans are ruined when her parents have the gall to stop to talk to the neighbors in My Parents Won't Stop Talking!, a laugh-out-loud picture book about patience by Emma Hunsinger and Tillie Walden.

It's time to go to the park, and Molly can't wait! It's going to be awesome and amazing and--

OH NO!

The neighbors have spotted her moms, and now they're talking. A lot. And everything they say is boring. Minutes feel like hours, hours feel like days, and days feel like eons . . .

Will her parents ever stop talking?!

This is a clever, irreverent take on a universal childhood dilemma, written and illustrated by two stars in the comics world.
