About Forty the Fortune Teller:

A laugh-out-loud funny graphic novel-style picture book about a paper fortune teller left behind at recess who ends up saving the day, by the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Day the Crayons Quit.
What's a fortune teller to do when she's dropped on the ground half-finished when the bell rings to mark the end of recess? Make friends and save the day, that's what!
In this hilarious graphic novel-style picture book, Forty the Fortune Teller, along with her friends Potato Chip and Basketball convince a team of chewed-up chewing gum to help repair the playground slide so that the kids at school won't get hurt. This story is totally wacky, totally adorable, and a perfect read-aloud for a storytime.
