That's how it is!

The collection "That Makes a Pie!" includes four humorous stories created by the world-renowned Canadian duo – children's author and storyteller Robert Munsch and artist Michael Martchenko: "That Makes a Pie!", "Get Off My Face!", "Alligator Baby", "Munschkin's Hide and Seek".
The heroes of these stories are ordinary boys and girls of elementary school age. The stories that happen to them also begin with ordinary things. But then… then events unfold in the most incredible way, each time leading to a hilariously funny ending.
Munsch's stories are incredibly popular, especially with children, because they all dream of seeing themselves like his main characters, who are not afraid to stand up for their opinions to adults, know exactly what they want, and always find a way out of difficult situations.
It should be noted that Robert Munsch's characters are always real children who inspired him with their behavior or a funny life story, and these children always appear in the stories under their real names. Munsch himself has three children who, by the way, became the heroes of the story "Munschkin's Hide and Seek", included in this collection. In other words, it can be confidently said about all of Robert Munsch's books without exception: based on a true story!
Robert Munsch is an incredibly popular Canadian children's author. He has created more than 80 books, which are published all over the world, and whose total circulation has exceeded 70 million copies. For his achievements in the field of children's literature, Robert Munsch was awarded the highest civilian state award - the Order of Canada, and was also honored with a star on Canada's Walk of Fame in Toronto. But perhaps the most reliable, though unofficial, measure of Robert Munsch's success is the fact that his books are the ones young readers most often do not want to return to the Toronto Public Library, preferring to keep them. Probably, every writer secretly dreams of such widespread love.
Thirteen different artists tried to illustrate Robert Munsch, but only cooperation with Michael Martchenko helped his stories find "their face" and play with new colors.
