A man who lives on a street where all the houses are the same repaints to be CRAZY AND FUNKY after a seagull drops a can of orange paint on his roof. And then, one by one, he convinces his neighbors to do the same. Good little book. But... is it fantasy?
Apparently, yes:
Age: Primary
Genre: Fantasy
Critique: This is fantasy because a man and everyone in his neighborhood does a complete remodel of their homes overnight. This is not realistic. This book is a good example of plot because it is clear and simple with a good ending.
Dear god. Maybe it's some special form of virus that only exists in this one (please, say it's not more than one!) classroom.
