Every elementary teacher knows his or her tricks to keep the glue in check.  For Matty, his art teacher says “Glue drops, not puddles!”.  But Matty loves glue.  At home, his parents help him produce all sorts of zany creations with different varieties of glue.  So when he is given the opportunity to have glue bottles in his hands, he has to squeeze hard…and jump belly first into the glue.  Sure, he gets stuck to the table, and as his buddies, teacher and father try to free him, a masterpiece is born.  Jason Lefebvre has captured such a wonderfully simple concept as “too much glue” that most children have heard or experienced first hand and let it spread into a fabulous story that parents, teachers and kids will love.  Zac Retz’s illustrations are clever and bright, whimsical and yet spot on.  Too Much Glue is a thoroughly enjoyable book that will stick with you like glue.
