“Kids will gobble this tale up.”
-Kirkus
“As in Jon Klassen’s Hat books, there’s no last-minute rescue, but most child readers will find this narrative hilarious rather than horrifying”.
-Booklist
“Young bibliophiles will enjoy turning every page of Cutler’s silly story as they will be looking to see who, if anyone, survives until the end. Verdict: Great fun as a read-aloud and for newly independent readers, this tale is sure to bring the giggles”.
-School Library Journal
“This tale of comeuppance employs page turns to ratchet up tension, and will likely hold listeners rapt during read-alouds. Cutler tees up and then tickles reader expectations in this deliciously dark tale in which a mischief-maker ultimately gets (ahem, becomes?) its just desserts”.
-Kit Ballenger/Shelf Awareness
“This is the naughty, laugh-out-loud read aloud of my dreams. An unreliable narrator, burping, and a mischevious twist ending — all in an accessible package with only a few words per page and snappy page turns. Bonus: a lot of the story lives in the art”.
