Book Reviews: “Gerber employs lilting syntax with bouncy rhymes [and] Dyer’s very softly hued illustrations fill double-page spreads that follow the toddlers, belonging to a myriad of races, on their adventures. Exuberant and full of fun.” — Kirkus Reviews
“Dyer’s soft colored pencil illustrations delight. An exuberant celebration of toddlers’ willful, can’t-be-stopped independence. Gerber’s carefully crafted rhymes and Dyer’s cherubic portraits balance tenderness and mischief on each page.” — Publishers Weekly
“This adorable title makes for an engaging read. A charming picture book that is psrightly in tone and text. A rollicking read-aloud.” — School Library Journal
