Another hilarious companion to I Wanna Iguana.

Alex is not happy about being sent to his grandparents’ retirement community while his parents go on a fabulous vacation. What could be worse than tagging along to Grandma’s boring bridge game or enduring the sight of Grandpa’s dentures?
 
But as the week goes on, Alex’s desperate emails to his parents turn into stories about ice cream before dinner and stickball with Grandpa. Before he knows it, Alex has made a surprising discovery: grandparents are way cooler than he thought!
 
Masterfully balancing hilarity and heart, Karen Kaufman Orloff and Dave Catrow deliver a story sure to entertain kids and grandparents everywhere.

This is a humorous book. In this book, a boy named Alex goes to his Grandparents' house and doesn't give it a chance right away. His parents go to Bora Bora and Alex keeps complaining about the boring things that his grandparents and his siblings do. But, he doesn't know about the things they do. This is one book in a series. We really liked this book because it reminds us of a time we wanted to go home before we gave a new place a chance. Read to find out about Alex and Iggy's adventure at Grandma and Grandpa's. PS- Iggy is his iguana! Read I Wanna Iguana to find out more about him! Then, check out the book I Wanna New Room for more of Alex's life.
