Critics Review
The comical cartoon illustrations of the stouthearted girl and bewigged baron layer the laughs in the details… ‘Sniffle snuffle snork!’ Giggle!

Fearing’s (the Middle School Bites series) broadly comic digital cartooning takes off quickly as it introduces readers to a town where everyone comically covers their ears… the book really hits its stride when the action moves to the castle, where bright-hued art keenly conveys the Baron’s plethora of furry, emphatically free-range friends.
