"The familiar characters taking on an unusual topic make this a book to consider anywhere this series is popular."-- "School Library Journal"

"The vibrant, beautiful watercolor paintings enhance this important lesson for young children about making friends and not telling lies."-- "OmniLibros"
It is a book that deserves a place in every library.-- "Just Imagine"
