About The Book
When the Relatives Came meets Wrestlemania in this rollicking picture book about a boy who spends his family reunion dodging his big, brawny, and boisterous wrestler relatives.
Family reunions mean lots of hugging, handshaking, and hair tousling. And Russell’s relatives? Well, they are more…enthusiastic than most. BIGGER than most. BRAWNIER than most. They’re wrestlers—from Lorry and Tory (the Twin Tornadoes) to Cousin Cora “The Cleaner” to Uncle “el monstruo” Marcoy! Skinny and scrawny Russell will have to meet, greet, and defeat this clan with some spectacular moves of his own in this vibrant celebration of what it means to be a family!
