The Horn Book Guide
“Cleary uses mnemonics, rhymes, visualization, and other tricks to try to cement in readers’ memories the spelling of difficult words. It’s a good idea, but the examples are generally too convoluted (even for mnemonic devices) to be useful. Goggle-eyed characters overwhelmingly crowd the pages.”
Booklist
“An upbeat, useful book for students hoping to overcome stumbling blocks in spelling.” —Booklist
