"June 8
Dear Mr. Lester,
I would like to bring Plantzilla home for the summer. All year long, I sat next to him. I brushed him. I watered him. I kept his growth charts. Plantzilla is the only plant I care that much about. Besides, he might miss me over the vacation and wonder where I am. I want Plantzilla. ONLY PLANTZILLA. Please? I have had so much fun with him in third grade. I can hardly wait for next year.
Your soon-to-be-fourth-grade student,
Mortimer Henryson"
Front flap:
"When you give a living thing love, you just never know where it will lead...
"Mortimer Henryson has always had a special place in his heart for Plantzilla, his third grade's class plant. But when he offers to take Plantzilla home for the summer, young Mortimer is in for more than he bargained for.
"All Plantzilla needs is a little water, food, love, and lots of sunlight. Mortimer's kindness comes back to him - beyond his and his family's wildest imagining."
Mortimer tells the story through charming, funny letters to Mr. Lester. There's even a note from Plantzilla.
Jerdine Nolen (1953 - ) has written many excellent children's books, including Harvey Potter's Balloon Farm, Big Jabe, Raising Dragons, and Thunder Rose. There's also Plantzilla Goes to Camp!
David Catrow (1952 - ) has illustrated over sixty children's books, including I Wanna Iguana, I Like Myself!, Are Pirates Polite?, and How Murray Saved Christmas.
