Reviews

"Funny, clever, deliciously dry...this book encourages kids to think outside the square, and hopefully, somewhere deep in that unlimited subconscious, understand that what we see is all about perception. What a powerful thought."--Kids' Book Review (Australia)

Praise for Did You Take the B from My _ook?:
"It's a winning bit of interactive silliness that offers insight into the way small changes can have big results where words are concerned."
--Publishers Weekly

Praise for Books That Drive Kids CRAZY!: This Is a Ball:
"A string of narratorial mistakes...gives children a chance to gleefully correct the adult reading it aloud....Another metafictive storytime crowd-pleaser."
--Kirkus Reviews

"[The Book with No Pictures, Press Here, and Mix It Up] are international bestsellers and deservedly so, but closer to home we now have a book which is just as delightfully frustrating, clever and nuts."--Children's Book Daily (Australia)

"It's a solidly funny concept...kids will have a ball with This Is a Ball."
--BCCB

"Kids will fall into fits of giggles as you try to tell them a car is a bike, and they'll only stop laughing long enough to correct you or beg to hear it all again."--Newcastle Herald (Australia)

"Kids will get a kick out of this mixed up tale."--Pregnancy & Newborn

"Not only does this book encourage object recognition, it's crazy fun for your kids."--Perth's Child (Australia)
