I received a free ARC from Big Bound Books through NetGalley
2.5 stars
The concept behind this one is cute. Rhyming text, singing along, and crazy things happening with some odd animals. The execution failed. The rhymes were forced at best. I couldn't get into the flow at all. The extra tidbits given are neat, I guess, but it took me a couple of pages to just stop reading them. I went back later to read them.
The illustrations aren't that great. They don't catch the eye. The colors are lackluster. I have to say, I had high hopes for this one. With better rhymes and more catching illustration, this could have easily become a story time classic. I was greatly disappointed.
