"Kennedy's anthropomorphized multi-species cast of characters is as charming and expressive as ever, especially when envisioning Miss Fox in black-and-white stripes. Sly clues sprinkled throughout point readers to the big reveal at the end. This lesson on gossip and rumors goes down like a spoonful of sugar."--Kirkus Reviews
"Fans of this series will enjoy this adventure...it will serve as a good discussion starter."--School Library Journal
