An obsessive list-making family confronts unexpected challenges in the form of a visitor who is not on anyones list and for whom they must make room and time despite being completely unprepared, in a whimsical, pun-filled tale complemented by stylish illustrations. By the award-winning author of Spork. The Liszts, who make lists all day long, have no time for an unexpected visitor who arrives one day and is not on the list. The Liszts make lists. They make lists most usual and lists most unusual. They make lists in winter, spring, summer and fall. They make lists every day except Sundays, which are listless. Mama Liszt, Papa Liszt, Winifred, Edward, Frederick and Grandpa make lists all day long. So does their cat. Then one day a visitor arrives. Hes not on anyones list. Will the Liszts be able to make room on their lists for this new visitor? How will they handle something unexpected arising? Kyo Maclears quirky, whimsical story, perfectly brought to life with the witty, stylish illustrations of Júlia Sardà, is a humorous and poignant celebration of spontaneity.
