“The author's note to this fun-for-the-tongue book says Ken Geist was inspired to write it by his own brother and sister twins.…Henry Cole's illustrations add to the fun--from the argyle pattern end pages to a boisterous bunch of creatures who look like they could have come out of a popular cartoon show.” —Children's Literature

“…a fun exercise made vivid by the bright acrylic-and-color-pencil illustrations featuring plenty of warm, romping cartoon details (the bats wear Batman logos on tiny T-shirts).
