Light's scribbly, detailed drawing style and careful use of color are ideally suited to a seek-and-find story, and this one is equal parts stylish and fun...Through the boy's busy, messy morning, Light reminds readers that there's a world of things to see and do before the school day starts.
--Publishers Weekly (starred review)

Light's illustrations are filled with lots of details--enough to make spotting each colored object something of a challenge--and adults sharing this with toddlers can easily give them more items to find, match, and count and thereby extend the fun. This may turn the dreaded morning routine into a game, and what could be more welcome than that?
