Booklist
“An enjoyable addition to language arts units.” —Booklist Online
School Library Journal
“In this latest addition to the eye-catching, feline-filled cartoon series, comical pictures and brief text demonstrate that compound words come in many forms and lengths. Cleary concludes with a reminder that though these words are often longer, decoding them is easily done by taking them apart.” —School Library Journal
