This would be good for toddlers and even younger children in storytime. The child and his mother leave a path of destruction behind them at the grocery store. There's little text, but a lot of action in the illustrations.

Only a couple words on each page, bright pictures. I've had days at the grocery store where I've felt a little like this mother must have.
