“...Gehrisch’s tale is a simple romp that will amuse toddlers and preschoolers who love animals and silliness as well as delight parents who enjoy picture books with semirealistic, vintage-looking illustrations. While the story is more of a list of events than a narrative, its short couplets deftly hold it together. The aftermatter reveals that the author slipped classic paintings like van Gogh’s The Starry Night into the images and challenges readers to find them and answer questions about them. Gehrisch’s illustrations, combined with the story’s low word count and uncomplicated vocabulary, not only make this a work that will hold a toddler’s attention, but also one that will appeal to children as they learn to read.” — Kirkus Reviews
Hardcover, 9"x11", 36 pages, spot varnish on matte dust jacket.
