Critics Review
- “An engaging and humorous first purchase, equal parts read-aloud and laugh-out-loud.”–School Library Journal* “Parsley channels the irreverent spirit of classic Warner Bros. cartoons in this battle of wills and books, with digital drawings framed and composed to land every comic beat. And while Roy spends much of the story fuming, sulking, or throwing a tantrum, he’s quite a loveable lug.”–Publishers Weekly“In both text and illustration, Parsley strikes a distinct, humorous tones for each character, and the twist at the end is giggleworthy and offbeat…[a] wily nod to the power of reading.”–Kirkus Reviews
