Hurray for Monty Ray!
Robert Bartelt
It's a real problem for Monty Ray that baby brother 'Lamb Chop' is still without a name, especially when Myrtle Stackpole, the class creep and clever-clogs, finds out and won't stop making fun. However, the fifth boy of the family is eventually named and taking 'rotten old burned toast' to school isn't as strange as Myrtle presumes. After a worrying time, Monty can relax. The bold print is interspersed with clear and often coloured illustrations on every page. 7-year-olds enjoyed this and established readers will read it for themselves.
