Review # 1 was written on 2013-09-09 00:00:00 Gerald Fisher I laughed out loud the first time I read this to my son. My husband did the same when I read it to our son again deliberately in his hearing. I'm not usually a fan of stories with morals, but I couldn't help but cheer for the opossum and the way he calls the other animals on the carpet for their flagrant stupidity. "Friends are supposed to HELP, not merely give advice." I also enjoyed the unorthodox mix of animal friends in this book - my 2 year old particularly enjoyed finding the daddy longlegs spider in every picture.

Review # 2 was written on 2017-11-25 00:00:00 Kimberly Miller Good tip: thank your friends for their advice, but persist until y'all come up with a plan that will actually *help*. Bonus point for the cumulative pattern which is so good for developing readers. A bit preachy, yes, but since it's funny, and the new edition has such cool pix, I do recommend it to families.
