Reviews
Library Media Connection
“With youthful language and humorous drawings, readers will enjoy the adventures of Billy and Jillian, two of the nicest Crooks you will ever meet.” —Library Media Connection
School Library Journal
“Bizarre and comedic circumstances keep readers wondering what will happen next, and frequent black-and-white art adds to the fun. This humorous series will be a hit with early-chapter-book readers.” —School Library Journal
Kirkus Reviews
“Scrappy song lyrics, energetic illustrations and plenty of potty humor keep the hilarity high for reluctant readers.” —Kirkus Reviews
