More About the Book: See the wind blow the leaves.  See the wind blow the leaves off the page.  See the wind blow the dog off the page. It's not easy to enjoy a picnic when you have unseeable interlopers to contend with! In a new trio of stories for beginning readers, the affable Max the dog and the mischievous Baby Cakes the cat encounter a happy ghost. With playful flair, author David LaRochelle and illustrator Mike Wohnoutka bring back their lovable characters for an amusing foray into things that go " Boo!," " Whoosh!," and "Hey! . . . Will you let me back into the book?"
 
Booklist, in a starred review, says, “Through the clever use of speech bubbles and Wohnoutka's delightful, inventive illustrations, three invisible things are animated and given tremendous personality. It is a remarkable feat to pack so many genuine laughs into such a simple text for emerging readers. . . This Geisel-winning series keeps the bar high with this newest installment. Not only does it set beginning readers up for success with repetition and context clues galore, but it entertains to its very core.”
