{"product_id":"the-clothesline-9781771473903","title":"The Clothesline","description":"This is a story about a little boy who lives above a convenience store with his mom. When he goes to spend his pocket money on candy--only when Mom's not looking--he gives the knot on the clothesline by the outdoor stairs a good yank (it makes the best sound). One day, he tugs a little too hard, and takes the stairs a little too fast, and--\u003ci\u003ewhiiiiiz!\u003c\/i\u003e--gets stuck hanging smack in the middle of the clothesline. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e He cries for help, but Mom doesn't hear. He waits for someone to save him, but only a black cat slinks by. His arm gets tired--but if he hangs on with both hands, he'll risk dropping his coins! It's a true dilemma. Finally, he cries out so loudly that he tumbles to the ground. He still spends his pocket money on candy. But he NEVER touches the clothesline again. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Told in sequential illustrations with simple text and vibrant sound effects, this is a suspenseful narrative offering an accessible entry point to early graphic novels and a lighthearted, laugh-out-loud reminder of the consequences of our choices.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Owlkids\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/15\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781771473903\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 64\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 7.80w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/09\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/25\/2019 pg. 1\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader Quiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e509695 \/ Clothesline\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 2 \/ \u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Lower Grade \/ \u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.5\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Orbie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52051761987765,"sku":"9781771473903","price":14.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_a5e207cf-bc73-4531-a286-101aac917559.jpg?v=1764047839","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-clothesline-9781771473903","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
