While there is no shortage of first day of school books or books about childhood milestones, this title combines the topics in a simple, upbeat way. A good addition for larger collections.
Although the illustrations depict funky dance details, the text is lacking a steady rhythm, which stymies the lively subject matter and results in an awkward read-aloud. An additional purchase.
Recommended purchase for libraries serving young children. This would be a welcome addition to lessons on colors, nutrition, and the animal kingdom and it also provides a launchpad for additional discussion and research.
Fans of gloomy fare such as Lemony Snicket's "A Series of Unfortunate Events," Adam Gidwitz's "Grimm" books, or Neil Gaiman's Coraline will find an equally twisting and terrifying tale here. An excellent addition to any middle grade collection.
