Official synopsis Publisher
“This clever tale about fun-loving, hard-working, and resourceful ants is sure to delight young children.” —School Library Journal (starred review)
Andy the ant is planning a small party for his birthday. But as word spreads around the anthill, the guest list grows and grows! Exuberant fun on every colorful page.
It’s another busy day at the anthill. Farmer ants collect food, worker ants build tunnels, and soldier ants guard the queen. But for Andy, it’s a very special day: his birthday! He invites his neighbors for a fun party with dancing and dips. But unbeknownst to Andy, his neighbors invite a few of their friends, and then those friends invite a few of their friends . . . Soon the event is shaping up to be a full-blown mega ant party! Andy is shocked by the turnout, but soon gets into the swing of things. Until, that is, an unwelcome guest crashes the party–and Andy’s house!–and the ants must work together to save the day (and the dips). Jovial text and lively, detailed illustrations make this story a comedic delight.
