Reception

 * A Common Sense Media review says, "Subtleties hidden in the background will emerge. Even when families tire of the story, they'll be drawn back to this book by its artistry."
 * A Mensha Library review says, "Like the writing, they are simple but masterful. Share this book with toddlers through preschoolers in units about sounds, farms, cows, animals, etc. There are so many uses for this one, and it is another great read aloud from a true master."
