"While suitable for an early readalone chapter book, this is equally worth sharing as a family." —The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

"Humorous situations, familiar parent-speak applied at the funniest times, and a hilarious war of words add up to a pleasant family story for readers who are just ready for chapter books." —Kirkus
