Praise for this book
Praise for What Is Inside THIS Box? (Monkey and Cake): * "On the theory that it's never too early to start considering the deep questions... eventually, in easy-to-follow steps, [Cake] comes around to the only logical position: that whatever is or is not in the box is more a matter of belief than something provable." -- Booklist, starred review"EXUBERANT, EXPRESSIVE AND FULL OF PHILOSOPHICAL INQUIRY... 4- to 8-year-olds will practice not only simple sentences but also a thought experiment... in a humorous coda, readers discover what seems to be the impossible truth." --- The Wall Street Journal"Daywalt (The Day the Crayons Quit) and Tallec (This Book Will Not Be Fun) have crafted a delightful, philosophical romp that will please and intrigue beginning readers.... Funny and thought-provoking. A definite purchase for beginning reader collections." --- School Library JournalPraise for The Legend of Rock Paper Scissors: * "Purely absurd, sidesplitting humor." -- Booklist, starred review* "The sort of story that makes children love to read." -- School Library Journal, starred reviewPraise for The Day the Crayons Quit: Amazon's 2013 Best Picture Book of the YearWinner of the E.B.
