The textures in the illustrations for this book are wonderful. I could see it easily garnering some Caldecott love.

There's not much to this. But what there is of this is good. The art is just slightly off, I liked pieces of every page, in some cases very much. The text was somewhat repetitive. But there was kind of a twist which becomes a through story. 3.5 of 5.

The beauty is in its simplicity. (Also its gorgeous illustrations!)

Sweet, amusing story about a perfect day for several pets and neighborhood animals until a black bear bumbles in. Then it's a perfect day for him. Good for a 3-5's story time.

Very cute- love the illustrations, and the story is simple but makes you think a bit.

Just when you think Lane Smith is going in a different direction...
His illustrations did surprise me. Something different for him.
This book would be good to use when discussing perspective.

Unexpected and lovely. The illustrations felt unique. Cute story. Would be a good book to promote discussion on perspective.
