I have to talk about this book as two separate entities. Let’s start with the story. The story is a simple one, but it’s not well done. The start of the book feels like it’s the middle of the story and there seems to be so much extra wording with no explanation. It’s like half of what the reader needs to know is missing. The story is not very successful. However, the illustrations are another matter. The illustrations are interesting. I feel this illustrator could really have a career in picture books with more experience. There are parts to the illustrations where they don’t feel done or not 100% complete but it’s almost perfect and I would like to see more.  However, the illustration for the cover is the worst illustration.  I would change this out. The type set used is not very readable as it always looks fuzzy. The illustrator has direction and could be the next big thing, but the writers need lots and lots more practice.
