Praise for this book

"The classic epic is told as a counting book with monsters because if you're going to introduce Homer to a baby, it's important to know your audience. A fun book to read on repeat that also gives them a base foundation for the story. For millennials, it was Duck Tales; for the new generation, it's BabyLit's version."--Amber Guetebier "TinyBeans" (11/22/2022 12:00:00 AM)
