Editorial Reviews

Review
[Gillian Clements] studied illustration under Raymong Briggs, and clearly shares her mentor's skill in the use of the cartoon format for storytelling (Books for Keeps )

This pictorial romp through history is full of interesting information told in both the main text and the picture-laden pages… There are cross-curricular nuggets of information that will tempt readers to delve deeper (School Librarian )
