Editorial Reviews

A large flap at the end of each chapter adds a tactile element while giving visual clues to the text, which is helpful when a new reader is struggling to identify a word. This would also be an excellent read-aloud to toddlers, especially with Long's graphic, bright, highly contrasting illustrations.

The New York Times Book Review - Laura Lutz

11/01/2015
PreS-Gr 1—In three brief chapters, readers are introduced to humorous situations involving a hen, pig, goat, and cow with an emphasis on the concepts of "in and out" in chapter 1, "over and under" in chapter 2, and "on and off" in chapter 3. The resolutions to the farm animals' various prepositional troubles are hilarious. The cartoon illustrations with bold black outlines, speech bubbles, spare text, and funny expressions add to the humor. With one well-placed flap and two gatefolds, the title will be laugh-out-loud fun for both preschoolers and those beginning to read on their own. The title is a natural match for the author's Geisel Award-winning title Up, Tall and High (Penguin, 2012). VERDICT A hilarious title that will be enjoyed by preschoolers and early readers alike.—Ramarie Beaver, Plano Public Library System, TX
