About This Book

A funny picture book about two very opposite kids who get lost in a museum, and the Buddy System that brings them together in an unexpected twist.

Every kid knows the Buddy System. That dreaded setup where your teacher pairs you up with someone else for a quick trip to the bathroom or a daylong field trip? If you're lucky, you'll get paired with a best friend. But what if you're not so lucky?

That's just what happens to our odd couple duo when they're paired, nay, STUCK together on a class trip to the museum. But when an encounter with the very serious Assistant Museum Director goes awry, these two might discover there is some good to the Buddy System after all. . .
