"--<em>Publishers Weekly</em> <strong>(starred review)</strong> </br></br>Praise for HOORAY FOR AMANDA AND HER ALLIGATOR: "The pacing, word volume and wide trim size are all inviting and encouraging, bringing readers close to the cozy friendship between Amanda and her impatient stuffed friend. "--<em>Kirkus Reviews </em><strong>(starred review)</strong> </br></br>"A hilariously fractured fairy tale....Top-notch for group storytime"--<em>Kirkus Reviews</em> </br></br>"Mo Willems is to our era what Margaret Wise Brown was a half century ago.... Like Brown, Willems has his finger on the pulse of what interests children most. His books are simple, not simplistic; they are clever, witty, various, and surprising."--<em>Boston Globe</em> </br></br>"On every page, the text winks broadly at readers, first pointing to and then playing with conventions of folklore, narrative voice, literary foreshadowing, and plain old common sense."--Horn Book <strong>(starred review)</strong> </br></br>"This is pure Mo Willems, from the many visual gags in the cleanly drawn illustrations and the tight, tongue-in-cheek story line to the endpapers .... Readers of all ages will find much to chuckle about in this wacky retelling."--School Library Journal <strong>(starred review)</strong> </br></br>Praise for HOORAY FOR AMANDA AND HER ALLIGATOR: "Amusing and heartwarming, it will leave Willems's fans totally satisfied."--School Library Journal <strong>(starred review)</strong>
