When Waldo and his girl friend Heavy Hetty get invited to the wedding of Beefy Betty and her trained Ed, Waldo is very excited. That is until Hetty insists that Waldo buy a new suit, shirt and tie for the wedding. Waldo feels uncomfortable and foolish in his new suit but Hetty looks a treat in her lovely dress, high-heeled shoes and big hat. But then the hat blows away... Another charming, warm and funny book about the lovable giant and his tolerant girl friend.

Umansky's witty text is superbly complemented by Weir's rather retro, but wonderfully expressive illustrations. - Carousel
