As the mother of two children and as a teacher, I found this book both hilarious and educational. Beneath the cheeky wordplay lies an environmental message that we all—especially children—need to hear. The book sparked an important conversation with my children about how to cope with difficult times and seek help to build resilience. Finally, I appreciate the diversity and inclusivity of the characters. I recommend this book because it touches on many important topics for both adults and children.
