“This misadventure from a bird’s perspective is hilarious, light, and clever and may provide fun reading and anew favorite.” —Children's Literature
Night of the Living Worms:
"Both [pictures and text] are liberally festooned with gags, sight gags, . . . and puns." —Kirkus Reviews
“Coverly's drawings are full of visual jokes, and the narrative is packed with playful language. . . .Clever, imaginative, and precisely targeted to its audience, this new series is sure to please.” —Booklist
"Filled with subtle irony, wordplay, and gentle pokes at life, the text is accompanied by appealingly large, cartoon-style, black-and-white line drawings. VERDICT This story will have students laughing out loud and reluctant readers asking for the sequel." —School Library Journal
