..".This makes an eminently suitable candidate for bedtime reading.... Hooray for the return of the baby beebee bird."--"Kirkus Reviews," July 1, 2000"Kellogg's familiar style is a perfect foil for the frolicking turnabout tale. ...[B]ound to invite enthusiastic participation."--"School Library Journal," Sept. 2000"The facial expressions...[give] visual voice to a story big on child appeal. A gentle message with a boisterous refrain."--ALA "Booklist," Dec. 15, 2000
