“The illustrations are super cool—both the florescent colors and the illustration style itself are incredibly unique! This is a seek and find book, so it's less about the story (which is pretty weak) and all about all the fun things that are hidden throughout the story. You can both look for the things suggested on each page, or for other incredibly wonky things all over the place!”
