About this title

Review:

“A freshly minted fable...alliterative adventure that may be set in a garden, but is anything but garden-variety.” (Kirkus Review)

“An interesting combination of realistically rendered backgrounds and insect bodies with faces drawn in the style of Dr. Seuss.” (School Library Journal)

“Children will enjoy the well-told story and Cole’s large-scale, child-friendly artwork.” (ALA Booklist)
