Critic Reviews

“[...] there are not many children anywhere who won't be delighted to feel the suspense and then bellow out the release. [...] A natural as a high-volume storytime ice breaker or lagniappe. --Kirkus Reviews You know a book's a hit when librarians steal it off of your desk (pre-pub, no less) to use in storytime . . . and you never see it again. This is one of my favorite readaloud picture books of the year. Can you see how the images just pop off a page so that even children in the back of the room are able to make out what's going on?--School Library Journal Fun illustrations, easy to read text, this will make a great storytime addition! --Nanci Booher, Multnomah County Library With bright bold illustrations and a rhythm that delights, this book will make you grin! --Jessica Sweedler DeHart, Wandering Bookseller This is an especially great read-aloud, yell-along book for toddler and pre-k audiences! --Rosemary Kiladitis, Librarian Another winner from Nobrow and Flying Eye Books! The illustrations are always top notch. This title's bright simplistic images are appealing to the eye and sure to delight the picture book crowd. The story moved along at a brisk pace and the reading rhythm was spot on. The twist at the end will leave the kids giggling. --Linda Canniff, La La in the LiBrArY”

The wonderfully simple visual joke underpinning this story of bravery and inner insecurity is told through the illustrations, graphically bold, strongly coloured, using page space and page turns with energy and stylish wit. Enormous fun! -- BookTrust
