Almost 20 years ago David Green berg visited my classroom for a couple days of workshops. I purchased this book at that time.
I really like Greenberg's writing. It's humorous and silly, which is a hook for fourth grade boys, who shy away from the writing process.
This book is about two brothers who are opposites. Peter is the consummate worrier. There's nothing too large or too small for Peter to be worried about. Frankie keeps egging him on. Halfway through the book Peter announces he has a new worry. Now he is worried that Frankie will be eaten by a shark in his water bed. This causes a reversal of worry. Frankie now takes on the worrying. Peter realizes there's nothing to get upset about.
It's cute enough.
