Brian Cheers for No More Nice

This book was very facinating to me. I liked how the lamas were named Mr. Crude, Mr. Rude and Mr. Ugly. I think everybody should have a chance to read books by Amy MacDonald, especially No More Nice. Maybe some of us should have unlessons it may help! Ms. MacDonald has my vote for the 2001 Nutmeg Award.
