-- NetGalley -- "The author used bolded text to draw attention to different phrases and words throughout the text. This addition will prompt caregivers and teachers to have the children join in on the story as well as build print awareness, as well as make this a good choice for storytimes in larger groups. Bright, vibrant illustrations with several pages using comic panel style illustrations will engage readers. The sequencing of the story is enhanced by the call back to familiar folktale and fairytale foes, and provides an easy segue for extension activities to build reading comprehension as well as an avenue to scale up for older readers. The natural back and forth flow of the text will keep readers guessing and engaged and lastly, giggling to see all of Mortimer's pursuers receive their comeuppance". -- NetGalley -- "I love the illustrations. They remind me so much of Alice in Wonderland and some animation movies. Kudos to the artist.
