Rat-a-tat dialogue and freewheeling cartooning, featuring a bounty of googly eyes and goofy expressions, make this a great readaloud for anyone whos ever felt objectified or misunderstood-a wide audience if ever there was one.“An engaging bit of silliness that should find a home in storytime and picture book collections.”“Yeah, I’d say that’s a winner! I laughed more with this book than I have in a while. The ending, especially, was a perfect touch. The illustrations are, of course, what make this book (because, really, a giraffe would not look like a chair otherwise).”
