Review # 1 was written on 2011-08-17 00:00:00 John Mcdonnell This is a silly and cute and very funny story, and the illustrations are wonderful, and also equally amusing. I like the wackiness and the heartwarming qualities of this story too. Love the dog!!! Love grandpa and the other varied characters. I thought I knew what was coming, could see it a million miles away, but as a young child I think the ending would have come as a surprise to me, and then I'd have wanted to read the story again and again. Knowing the ending at the beginning did not at all diminish my enjoyment of the story. Perfectly matching story & pictures, and they're so much fun. It's all very clever and nearly a 5 star book for me. 4 ½ stars for sure. This is a marvelous read aloud book, and early readers will enjoy also reading it to themselves. And I'm very glad my dentist has told me that people don't need to lose their teeth anymore. Even with those very fancy and expensive false teeth, natural teeth are much more appealing. This is the sixth/alternate title for this month's grandparents theme for the Picture Books Club at the Children's Books group.

Review # 2 was written on 2011-09-10 00:00:00 Joseph Pielech II In celebration of Grandparent's Day, the Picture-Book Club in the Children's Books group here at Goodreads decided that September's theme would be about Grandparents. This book was selected as one of the books we'll discuss this month. It's a fun read, with lots of subtle (and not-so-subtle) humor regarding the theft of a set of dentures. I loved the illustrations - they had a slightly exaggerated, almost too-real quality that I normally associate with the work of C.F. Payne. The narrative was fun to read aloud, with the lispy dialogue of a man who's lost his teeth. Overall, we enjoyed reading it together, but honestly, I expected to like it even more than I did. For us, it was good, but not great.
