Praise for this book
"Divided into five short chapters, this gentle adventure supports newly independent readers with engaging color illustrations, textual repetition, and ample white space to cushion its sentences. Helpful back matter includes "Fun Facts" about each of the characters, a glossary for new vocabulary, and information on the free resources available on the publisher's website."-- "Booklist"
"Illustrations are large with multiple spreads and a color palette that is well suited to a story about nocturnal animals... VERDICT Purchase where the series has a following."-- "School Library Journal"
"Imagination can surely overcome boredom."-- "Kirkus Reviews"
"Cute, colorful illustrations bring the story to life. Helpful information about each animal is provided at the back of the book, along with a small glossary of some of the silly words and a suggestion to visit the publisher's website for reproducible activities to go with the book. First/second grade teachers might like to have it, and others from the series, in the classroom during an animal unit."-- "Youth Services Book Review"
"There's much to like about this Level 3 early reader... Karina the kinkajou shows up and shows them how to use their imaginations, opening up a whole new world of possibilities... In addition to learning about friendship and imagination, readers will learn about nocturnal animals."-- "Story Monsters"
"Hecht successfully set the stage for more adventurous outings down the road..."-- "Publishers Weekly"
"Very highly recommended for family, daycare center, preschool, elementary school, and community library collections."-- "Midwest Book Review"
"The series addresses bullying and empathy in an easy, accessible way, and the books are meant to be read aloud."-- "New York Post"
