Product Details

Praise

“[Kids will] enjoy the silliness [and] the chaos that springs from each unexpected plot twist. . . . Vivid, expressive illustrations capture the characters’ shifting emotions, while creating lively backdrops . . . Sure to amuse.” —Booklist (starred review)

“Immensely creative . . . Exciting [and] intricate.” —BookPage (starred review)

“Creativity, imagination, and humor run wild in this story. [It’s] clearly Interrupting Chicken meets Harold and the Purple Crayon. . . . Aly’s illustrations are vibrant and full of the action and energy relayed in the text. Funny and wildly unpredictable, this will be a read-aloud hit. Recommended.” —School Library Journal (starred review)

“Riotous . . . Readers will appreciate these rollicking rhymes and laugh at the sister’s out-there ideas. The comical digital illustrations will elicit chuckles. . . . Readers will have a fine time [and] won’t be averse to the verse.” —Kirkus

“Funny throughout . . . but the real payoff comes with a revelation at the end, which will likely prompt readers to go back and look more closely.” —The Horn Book

“Omar Abed’s rhyming prowess propels this sprightly picture book that follows two siblings jointly composing an adventure, [with] energetic digital renderings [by Hatem Aly].” —Publishers Weekly

“This hilarious picture book . . . has a surprise twist that shows the younger sister is just as adept at wordplay as her older sibling. This is such a funny read-aloud . . . A great addition.” —Book Riot
