Summary:
In this book Meggie is telling Jimmy about what happened at her mom's garden party. Meggie's mom wore Jimmy's pet boa to her garden party. While there the snake caused a huge ruckus.
Personal Reaction:
This is a very funny, immaginative book. The illustrations are very colorful and exciting.
Classrom Extension Ideas:
1. This book could lead into a lesson about snakes.
2. This book could also be used to teach about pets. The students could draw a picture of their oen pets.

While this one doesn't hold quite the charm for me of Jimmy's Boa Ate the Wash, it's still fun to see Jimmy, Meggie, and the boa in a new setting! The garden club meeting makes for some funny exchanges between the boa, the garden club members, and the punch bowl.
