"From the striped, marmalade cat to the scruffy, up-for-anything dog, everyone is supercharged and ready to go.their imaginations make their ordinary suburb quite extraordinary. The characters' energy explodes from this endearing tribute to sibling interactions and affection."-- Kirkus , STARRED review "It's a touching story of anticipation rewarded and unalloyed affection reciprocated."-- Publishers Weekly "Everything seems better when your favorite person gets home. A sweet-natured tale for young children that celebrates the special bond between siblings."-- School Library Journal "With great charm and sweet, lighthearted moments, Lichtenheld (Goodnight, Goodnight, Construction Site, 2011) offers an affectionate portrayal of a brother-sister relationship. While it highlights one duo, this also universally conveys the joys of creative play, which is made more meaningful when shared with someone special.
