It’s spring! That means it’s time for one of Cork’s favorite activities: spring cleaning! It makes him very, very happy. It does not make his best friend Fuzz very, very happy at all. Fuzz would rather gather stones for his collection and clean them in the pond. But Cork insists that Fuzz help with the chores. Fuzz does not cooperate and in fact reminds Cork, “You are not the boss of me!” Would a potato chip bag help? Maybe. Cork wanders for a long time, searching for the treat. When he finally gets back home, the yard is very, very clean, but where is Fuzz?  (Garden State Children's Book Awards, 2018)
