I do love this book. A little wordy, but what beautiful choices of words. Could work with the right pre-k group or PJ storytime perhaps. Either way, it's good fun.

Oh, this was a fun book! I am in love with the dog who is drawn with the cutest expressions. The drawings are whimsical and weird, the story is odd and inventive. I could read this one out loud over and over again. From the beginning, where Lester measures his socks to make sure they are even, to the end, when Cousin Clara finds her people, it's just an unmitigated delight. There is also plenty to look at on every page, which practically guarantees success at bedtime. Lester is a quirky and interesting kid who clearly has enough backstory to support several more books, and I hope K.G. gets right on that.
