REVIEW HIGHLIGHTS
"Arnie takes destiny into his own hands with vastly entertaining results." --Publishers Weekly, starred
"Laurie Keller is a goofball. She's a genius. She's a goofball and a genius." --New York Times Book Review
"Keller gives 'pet food' a new meaning in this savory outing. . . . so deliciously silly is this confection, that few readers will pass up second helpings." --Kirkus Reviews
"[G]ood for a belly laugh." --Newsday
"Arnie is one of the cleverest and funniest books I've seen in a long time." --BookPage
"[P]acked with fun and sprinkled with so many illustrative and humorous asides." --Star Tribune, Minneapolis, MN
"In picture books, usually only dogs are as funny as this. Keller doesn't miss a trick." --San Diego Union Tribune
"Keller's riotous collages. . . .which are filled with gleeful puns, winning characters, and over-the-top silliness, are as manic and fun as a sugar high." --Booklist
"Off-the-wall humor and zany artwork" --Seattle Post Intelligencer
