“When I was on a trip to Australia, I picked this book up to bring home to my then-two-year-old daughter; luckily, you don't have to go to Australia to enjoy it! I love the adorable minimalist illustrations and the simple, silly storyline. The humor makes me giggle just as much as my toddler does. This is the kind of book that looks great on a shelf and is just as enjoyable to actually read.”
