Media Reviews
"That Bynum comes up with so many lines to rhyme with "Altoona Baboona" deserves some kind of acclaim, even if the rhymes make the reader laugh and groan at the same time. [His] watercolors have a breezy ocean air feel to them, as light and buoyant as her simian heroine."
-- Kirkus

Loose-jointed and seemingly effortless pen-and-ink and watercolor illustrations are accompanied by a brisk two lines of text per page: i. E. "Altoona Baboona flicks his peas with a spoon-a. " Each turn of the page provides a new setting and another unexpected and funny two-liner: i. E. "She takes to the skies in her hot air balloon-a. " It's just the sort of humor pre-schoolers are likely to appreciate. "; Signed by Author & Illustrator . ( more information) Offered by TAYLOR's BOOK PAGE (United States)
