This is one of the all-time great picture books, cutting through the waters of children's literature like a silver arrow.

Not too impressive, in my opinion. The drawings were not subtle, or bright, interesting, or fun, or much of anything. I did like that I was fooled; it turned out *not* to be The Boy Who Cried Wolf. Fun enough to add to the stack from the library but not to order from ILL, I'd say.
