About the Book

Matty loves glue, even though his art teacher warned him that too much glue never dries. After all, he and his dad make oodles of glue projects at home. During art class, Matty finds the fullest bottles of glue, and the fun begins. With a squeeze and a plop, Matty pours a lake of glue before belly-flopping right in the middle and getting stuck. When Matty's dad arrives at the school, instead of being mad, he celebrates his son's creativity and calls him a work of art.
