Scoochie and Skiddles are cousins who turn an ordinary day at their grandmother’s house into something extraordinary.  Using only imagination, creativity and a little help from “Gramma”, the girls are transformed into princesses, complete with a castle built from furniture cushions and costumes that are courtesy of Gramma’s and Grumps’ (that’s their grandfather) closet.  Like many five-year-olds, Scoochie’s is on the verge of a temper tantrum when her daddies inform her it is time to go home.  Gramma comes to the rescue and, like grandmom’s always do, helps prevent the meltdown.

The book captures the exuberance and innocence of childhood and is a perfect read for children of all ages.  Hopefully though, the best part of this book is what comes after the last page has been read – an opportunity for adults and children to get on the floor and start creating their own adventure … their own “best day ever!”  Enjoy.
