This is a good book, but it doesn't come anywhere near meeting industry standards as far as pages (it's got 16 pages but the industry standard is 28 or 32 pages, so it doesn't come even close to it). The story is kinda rhymey but only on certain lines, and would be much better as either everything rhyming or no rhymes at all, not both at the same time. Those two reasons are why I'm knocking off a star. The illustrations are funny and so appropriate to a child's sense of humour, and I have no doubt they would enjoy it when it's read to them. I'm just wondering about the pronunciation of "Sneasy" though... is it "Sneezy" or does it rhyme with grease or is it something else entirely?
Overall, a good book that will really appeal to young listeners who are reluctant to get clean after playing in the mud or who don't like having their hair washed or whatever.
This was a short little book written with a young audience target. It was interesting and I will have to see what my youngest 2 granddaughters think of it. The pictures probably are not the best for this age group, they are a little creepy looking. I think it would be better to have a little more cartoonish look or at least a little more rounded for the characters besides Sneasy.
I liked the storyline it just was so short to build much.
I received an ARC through NetGalley. Thanks to the publisher, Trafford books as well. This did not effect my reviews in any way.
