Reviews
Publishers Weekly STARRED REVIEW There's a constant sense of movement in Van Biesen's elegant mixed-media illustrations, which balance a chic urban environment with loads of physical comedy. The repetition and sound effects built into the storytelling add to the fun ( Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop! Bumble-de-bump! Bumble-de-bump! ) as Van Biesen shows how serendipity and misadventure can result in an unforgettable day. Booklist An amusing story; with its repetitive text sure to appeal to kids, and its double-page spreads filled with lively mixed-media pictures that grow increasingly crowded, readers will fall for it--hook, line, and sinker.
