1 book

This story is light hearted and funny and a good book to spice up a collection with since it is not serious and will add variety. ( )

The first time he wears cousin Charley's discarded winter coat, Scott finds himself involved in several interesting situations.

A boy named Scott wears an oversized winter coat out for the day, prompting people to believe that the coat has come alive on its own. This is a cute story, with not much underlying meaning. It is purely a bit of fun about a boy walking around in a giant coat, and the way people react to him.The illustrations by Tomie De Paola really add a warm feel to the story. ( )
