Praise for this book

It's bedtime for the mouseling brother and sister--but not before plenty of horsing around and a deliciously scary expedition into the backyard... Another outing positively radiant with child appeal, featuring a pair of close siblings with complementary personalities.
--Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

Hayes' sense of the bouncing rhythms of children's play, grasp of sibling social dynamics in true-to-life scenarios, and especially his adorably huggable, crayon-colored characters have made him the standard-bearer of early-reader comics.
--Booklist

Benny and Penny are two of the most adorable mice created in a comic book format, and their adventures are engaging to young readers...The series continues to show a fun look at timeless tales of big brothers and little sisters and the wonder of imagination.
