Reviews
"It's a lucky thing indeed that this book is as great a joy to read aloud as it is." --Kirkus Reviews "A briskly told story whose baddie's comeuppance is reminiscent of Home Alone." --Publishers Weekly "This amusing, clever take on familiar tropes will be a favorite in storytimes and homes." --The Horn Book "The charming illustrations....are packed with diverting details and hilariously capture the physical humor when everything comes to a head. An entertaining exercise in seeing setbacks from a different perspective." --Booklist "This picture book invites a read-aloud or solo read for a stronger reader....will have kids giggling in relief." --The Bulletin
