This is an excellant book, especially for 4-7 year olds. The pictures are very detailed, and the text has subtle humor. The author lets the reader make their own judgement about the circumstances and choices we have to make. His other books are equally good( The Polar Express, Two Bad Ants, etc).
Chris Van Alsburgh once again presents a dark tale with a light touch. Very creative ideas with inspire art work!

Good book...inexpensive. I purchased it for the illustrations, but the story is very cool. A noir children’s book!

Read another copy of this book, and decided I needed one of my own. I have other books by the same author, but not this one. I think this is one of his better ones.
Wonderful story. I read my niece's copy and decided I needed to buy a copy for myself. Pictures are great but i love the story and the ending.
