Review Quotes
"Wildly colorful, Goneau's cartoon illustrations turn the rhythmic, rhyming verses into comically exaggerated little dramas. While many children's books use alliteration, few actually define it or talk about it. This playful yet practical book will help kids grasp the concept."―Booklist
