(information taken from Amazon.com)
A delightful adventure emerges as each little boy and girl goes about the task of cleaning his or her room -- a chore that no child likes -- in How to Clean Your Room. First, wade through the clutter of color like an artist. . . what a lovely mess. Next stop at the books teetering by the bed, tottering with words, worlds you have read about, pages you have danced in. . .
Eileen Spinelli spins a glorious tale as she inspires children to clean their rooms -- not in a rush, but with the wildest imaginings and a tender touch. For the bedroom is where you laugh and cry, dream big dreams, and store your precious memories. This book could start a whole movement of children asking to clean their rooms!
Includes special features children love--pop-ups, pulls, flaps, and a spinner. Ages 5-8.

About the Author
Eileen Spinelli's lyrical verse has graced the pages of more than 35 children's book, most recently Two to Cuddle from CandyCane Press. She is a featured poet in Ideals magazine and lives in Wayne, Pennsylvania, with her husband and fellow author, Jerry. David Leonard's illustrations embody strong concepts and a wit worth stopping for. He splits his time between New Jersey and Rio de Janeiro with his wife and twin girls. This is his second title for Ideals; his first was Daddy's Home!MY REVIEW
How to Clean Your Room is a fun book. My kids all really liked the interactive aspects of peeking, pulling, popping, and turning on each page! Personally I really loved the way the pages look- the layout, the font used, the beautiful illustrations- all worked together very nicely. All three of my kids thought the illustrations were great too. I would certainly recommend this book.
Thanks to Phenix & Phenix Literary Publicists for sending me a review copy of this book and for sponsoring the giveaway.

Very cute! I thought when I saw the tweet that it might give me some instruction in fulfilling my new year's resolution to clear the clutter, but instead it reminds me of books my girls had when they were young. I'd love to share it with the new young ones in my life!
