Critics Review

“Wilson’s blend of early learning concepts, humor, and wordplay make for a jaunty read-aloud.” – “Publishers Weekly,” starred review“The tautly told tale, dramatic surprise, and appropriate comeuppance for the protagonist will delight young listeners.” – “Horn Book Guide”“This imaginative counting book will keep children laughing….” – “School Library Journal”“Wilson’s bouncy, humorous verses mesh well with Rankin’s cartoonlike, watercolor illustrations, which fairly teem with visual asides.” – “Booklist”
