Davide Cali and Benjamin Chaud

There's more to this museum than meets the eye! This is the wonderfully wacky world of celebrated international author-illustrator team Davide Cali and Benjamin Chaud, the duo behind Junior Library Guild selections I Didn't Do My Homework Because . . ., The Truth About My Unbelievable Summer . . ., and A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to School . . . . Notoriously (and delightfully) unreliable narrator Henry is late to a museum where his class is spending the day. But he has a plan: He'll just catch up in one of the exhibits. That's not possible in these halls! With volcanoes erupting, dinosaurs charging, and secret stairwells lurking, reuniting with his classmates becomes a quest of outrageous proportions. Young readers will revel in this entertaining book's over-the-top antics.

Benjamin Chaud has illustrated more than 60 books. He is the illustrator of I Didn't Do My Homework Because . . ., A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to School . . ., and The Truth About My Unbelievable Summer . . . . He is the author and illustrator of the New York Times Notable Book The Bear's Song, The Bear's Sea Escape, The Bear's Surprise, and Farewell Floppy . He lives in Die, France.

Davide Cali is the author of A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to School . . ., The Truth About My Unbelievable Summer . . ., When An Elephant Falls in Love, and I Didn't Do My Homework Because . . ., which has been translated into 17 languages. He lives in France and Italy.
