Review
The author and illustrator of this book wants all to know that he makes all of the decisions about this book, about the text, the illustrations and the white space and on and on. However, there is a Panda in the book and he is not amenable to this arrangement. He even objects to his name. He wants to be a part of writing this book and also illustrating it. He inserts new characters, a pull tab and even a pop-up page! The author is livid. This story makes for a very amusing story and kids will love it. The illustrations are spot-on and expressive. Definitely consider this one for your picture books shelves. It makes a wonderful read aloud.
Overall Book Score: very good
