Yonie Wondernose

Seven-year-old Yonie is a wondernose because he can’t keep his nose out of anything and is always getting into trouble. When his parents go away overnight, he’s left as the man of the house and promised a special reward if he can keep himself and the farm out of trouble. But that night a bad storm brings trouble–the kind that not even a full-grown man could handle easily. A Caldecott Honor Book. Illustrations. 48 pp. Ages 7-11. Pub: 7/97.
