It’s the last day of summer vacation and William—a little boy who loves order and schedules—has just one thing left to accomplish: have the most fun ever. He's even created a fun-o-meter to help him achieve his goals. But nothing he does seems special enough. Even worse, William's fanciful next-door neighbor, Anna, keeps interrupting his plans with increasingly outlandish suggestions—like trampoline bouncing to the moon to find dinosaur bones or riding talking seahorses to an underwater castle. Can these two seemingly different kids find a way to have the best day together . . . and maybe become friends, too? This charming picture book about a child who always follow the rules is a must-read for kids and parents in need of a funny, gentle reminder to get creative and let their imaginations run wild.

Brian ★★★★★

William's fun-o-meter gimmick hooked my kid immediately, and we actually used it to rank our own silly summer activities. The way the story balances his love for order with the chaos of a last fun day feels so real.

Penelope P. ★★★★★

My son loved tracking his own fun on the fun-o-meter as we read along, and it sparked a great conversation about trying new things. The illustrations are charming and really capture the bittersweet feeling of summer ending.

Carter K. ★★★★★

My son loved William’s fun-o-meter idea so much he started his own after reading it. The story really captures that bittersweet last day of summer perfectly.
