Review Quotes

? "The art perfectly complements the imaginative, absurd text....Ginny is becoming a symbol of toddler power."--Kirkus, STARRED review "Thomas's colorful illustrations are packed with personality. Ginny stands out on every page....this title is sure to please children whether or not they want a pet of their own. Readers will find Ginny's adventures and the tone of the text a hoot."--School Library Journal "Elaborate monster-seeking scenarios, the title phrase as a refrain, and lively illustrations in ink and gouache make Ginny's second humorous outing...perfect for reading aloud."--The Horn Book --
