From Parents’ Choice®: “As fresh as a summer breeze is this first book both written and illustrated by artist Janie Bynum. 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 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. In the end, we find we've been beguiled by a charming heroine as well as treated to a thoroughly satisfying wisp of a tale. Bynum's book is a surefire crowd pleaser.”
