Critical Reviews
A Junior Library Guild Selection * "Witty and surprising, this title dances flawlessly along the border between outright humor and smart, spot-on social-emotional teaching. . . This book is everything children need in a book: smart, funny, relevant, and surprising--and highly recommended." --School Library Journal, starred review
* "Finison and Wiseman present a surprisingly complex subject in a way that's fresh, fun,
and entirely creative. An excellent catalyst for classroom discussions, the book is sure to
provoke giggles while getting kids to consider equity in an age-appropriate way . . . Superb conversation starters for youngsters who fret about fairness--in other words, all
kids." --Kirkus Reviews, starred review
