Rocko and Spanky are having company today. But first their house needs some serious cleaning. And it looks like they don't have any food to serve their guest--even after Rocko makes a trip to the supermarket. Will these sloppy sock monkeys get everything ready in time?

In this second book of their crafty, spunky (and uncommonly funky) series, sisters Kara and Jenna LaReau welcome you to drop in on Rocko and Spanky. . . and a very special visitor.
With complete instructions for making Rocko and Spanky's deee-licious
peanut-butter-and-banana sandwiches!

From School Library Journal:

PreSchool-Grade 1–In this follow-up to Rocko and Spanky Go to a Party (Harcourt, 2004), the twin sock monkeys are expecting a guest, so they clean the house, plan the menu, and go shopping. Chaos ensues as Spanky throws all the toys into the closet haphazardly, and Rocko's trip to the grocery store yields only his favorite junk food. Fortunately, their visitor is Momma and she brings their favorite food, Momma Socko's Deee-licious Peanut-Butter-and-Banana Sandwiches. (The recipe is included.) The illustrations, done mainly in shades of red, green, and yellow, have a 1950s look; the story itself is rather flat and lacks action because of the bland narrative. Strictly an additional purchase.–Linda Zeilstra Sawyer, Skokie Public Library, IL
