An entertaining short read for children. The puns are also hilarious. I enjoyed it as much as my mini me did.

I enjoyed the art and silly story about Private I investigating 6's fear that 7 ate 9 and is coming to get him next. Very cute.

Kiddo L O V E S this book, but it drove me a little crazy to read it over and over again. It's not my favorite or anything, but it's alright.

Hilarious! Great play on words. And good lesson about listening to others and teamwork.

Classic joke: Why is 6 afraid of 7? Because 7 8 9
How did nobody do a picture book about this before?
