Praise for this book

"The call-and-response construction of the tale will lend itself well to performing for preschoolers. The bright, heavily lined, digitally created illustrations resemble block prints and feature smiling (or shouting) big-eyed animals in full-bleed, double-page spreads. A catchy, cautionary tale." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
