Time after time, Timothy finds himself in disasters of his own creation, leaving a trail of broken heirlooms, torn tutus, and innocent bystanders (including his cat, Fluffy). \u003cbr\u003e Told in a series of letters, readers follow Timothy through his hilarious antics and missteps. When his pocketful of marbles wreaks havoc at his sister's ballet recital, Timothy realizes he's gone too far. In one final, remorseful letter, Timothy apologizes for the ballet blunder and says his father probably wishes Timothy had never been born. What follows is a touching lesson about the redeeming power of acceptance. \u003cbr\u003e Bright, comic-like illustrations and hand-lettered text bring Timothy and his shenanigans to life. Hilarious and heartwarming, \u003ci\u003eThe Sorry Life of Timothy Shmoe\u003c\/i\u003e is a call to empathy for children who struggle with impulse control, and a tribute to unconditional love.\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 04\/15\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781771473934\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 32","brand":"Stephanie Simpson McLellan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39463521747125,"sku":"9781771473934","price":15.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_2efd1e43-9091-43ae-a18e-e9c524703e89.jpg?v=1615924524","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-sorry-life-of-timothy-shmoe-9781771473934","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
