My Thoughts:
What a fun, silly, imaginative book! While the story itself is rather far-fetched – kids just discovering the joy of reading are going to LOVE this!! Personally, I really appreciated the formatting of the book and the fact that the reader was addressed almost directly at times. This book is going to give a whole new spin on read-aloud moments, bed-time stories and parent-child read-togethers.
I really don’t want to say too much to spoil your fun, but I’ll give you a clue where the story takes place: study the artwork on the cover very carefully!
There is a whole lot of silly, good-natured fun packed in this story, and young readers will enjoy this immensely!
