The prose is deadpan; the joke's all in Klassen's winsomely smudgy illustrations."--<em>New York Times Book Review </em><br><br>"Love, joy, and ridiculous similes come together in this confectionary absurdity from noted talents Barnett and Pizzoli."--Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books<br><br>Praise for EXTRA YARN: "Klassen's deadpan, stylized illustrations impeccably complement Barnett's quirky droll writing."--School Library Journal <strong>(starred review)</strong><br><br>Praise for SAM AND DAVE DIG A HOLE: "Mind-blowing in the best possible way."--Horn Book <strong>(starred review)</strong><br><br>Praise for THE SKUNK: "A daffy yet stylish readaloud with surprising performance possibilities."--Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books <strong>(starred review)</strong><br><br>Praise for THE SKUNK: "Clever visual motifs, sly storytelling, and tight pacing make this a picture book that will be enjoyed by both children and their grown-ups."--School Library Journal <strong>(starred review)</strong><br><br>Praise for THE SKUNK: "McDonnell's graceful and simple cartoonlike illustrations mitigate the notes of paranoia and obsession in Barnett's deadpan text."--Horn Book <strong>(starred review)</strong><br><br>Praise for EXTRA YARN: "There's nothing to say but perfect."--Lane Smith, New York Times bestselling author of IT'S A BOOK<br><br>Praise for THE MAGIC WORD: "A subversive take on the topic of manners that still manages to deliver a message about human decency."--The Horn Book<br>
