Honor winner and bestselling author-illustrator David
Shannon makes readers laugh aloud when young Spencer's
mountain of toys becomes overwhelming.
Spencer has too many toys! His father trips
over them, his mother falls over them, and the house is
overflowing with junk. Now its time to give some of the
mountain of goodies away, but Spencer finds it hard. In the
end, he fills a box, but decides the one toy he can't part
with is the box!
