Review
"Kellogg's uproarious picture book...draws on the legendary exploits of Davy Crockett's wife. From the moment she's born she's amazing....She grows tall and strong, marries Davy Crockett, and protects her family from a gang of hooligan alligators...The storytelling is wonderfully laid-back, combining the grotesque and the domestic with droll exaggeration. The pictures swing from wild comic chaos to an occasional sweeping view of the universe."--Booklist.
"A rollicking retelling. The exuberant artwork depicts Sally Ann's adventures with joyful humor and great energy." --The Horn Book
