Rating: 4 out of 5 stars

5 Minute Book Review: Gamera (5.5) is willing to read this book so it must be easy and have super cute illustrations. (It is and it does.) Cookie Monster (7.5) likes this book, too. And, of course, Glow Worm (3.75) always brings this book out for someone to read him (but no one does because I am a neglectful mother).

The pictures are super cute and the content incredibly easy. The plot is also very silly and easy. Super fun.

Here is a video of Gamera reading an excerpt from the book.
