Critical Reviews
Critical Reviews
"Hoberman's rhythms are lively and agile, and her imagination and sense of humor are still in tune with young readers. Fraser's simple but detailed gouache and watercolor illustrations exhibit the same qualities . . . Good for beginning or experienced readers of poetry, this should indeed become a favorite."--School Library Journal
"This collection of some forty years of Hoberman verse is a charmer."--The Horn Book--
