I can do better than this! That's what Grumbletroll firmly believes, so he bets his friends that he can manage not to grumble for one whole day. But that's easier said than done: When his friends snatch the delicious cake right from under his nose, he'd love nothing better than to stomp his feet on the ground. And when a startled crow drops an unpleasant surprise right on his head, he wants to scream at the top of his voice.

This architectural diary tells the story of the incredible concentration of midcentury modern motels of Wildwood, New Jersey, from their origin in the Doo Wop decade of Elvis Presley to their whereabouts today. Not many people know that it was local contractors, not architects, who created this trove of asymmetrical, neon-encrusted motels with swooping rooflines and pink pylons, meant to attract vacationing families. This book chronicles their architectural significance and preserves memories of what many of these cheerful, flamboyant buildings looked like before they were demolished by developers, depriving motel neighborhoods of the chance to become landmarked historic districts. In addition to over 200 photos, many never before published, maps pinpoint the location of the motels, some long gone and others stops on today's architecture tours.
