"Snuggle-up story time reading at its best....Cute as a button and perfectly reflecting the excitement and imagination of children's free play, Herbert on the Slide is a must for any baby's or preschooler's home bookshelf as well as for school and public library collections.....would also make a much-loved gift for baby showers, new siblings, birthdays, and the holidays." -- Celebrate Picture Books

"Sounds like just a great day at the park and even I want to go have on the slide right now. ... a cute book that little ones should enjoying listening to and looking at the magical illustrations." --Michelle Donaldson, educator
