Reviews

The New York Times Book Review

“Willis’s rhyming verse… takes a delightfully light approach to teaching animal attributes.” —New York Times Book Review

School Library Journal

“The boisterous illustrations feature cartoon animals shaded with a surprising depth of color that is quite beautiful, and the overall effect is bold and bright….This title will be popular with the storytime crowd.” —School Library Journal

Publishers Weekly

“Willis and Reynolds conclude with a punchline that will tickle any readers who already think of their younger siblings as being part ape.” —Publishers Weekly
