A 2016 Notable Children's Book in the English Language Arts "Kids will enjoy searching for answers in both words and pictures, not to mention the surprise at the story's end. The muted colors of Di Giacomo's illustrations complement each scene's subtle humor (a seagull reading Jonathan Livingston, for instance), and all works together beautifully to unify language, picture, and story." -- STARRED REVIEW, Booklist "As the cover art teases, this is both a game and a riddle book, with clever illustrations providing clues ... In a word: outstanding." -- STARRED REVIEW, Kirkus Reviews "Call it what you like, but Esoffier and Di Giacomo appear to have another hit on their hands ... Wordplay and fun--what's not to like?" -- Book Page "Escoffier and Di Giacomo keep up the wordplay in this fun companion to 2014's Take Away the A, which invites readers to find the names of animals hidden within various words ...Di Giacomo's rough-hewn illustrations place the action in a rowdy school, with plenty of funny encounters to keep kids giggling." -- Publishers Weekly "...the creative duo of Michael Escoffier and Kris Di Giacomo returns with a magnificent seek-and-find caper that plays as much with words as with pictures."----The Wall Street Journal "Animals filled with personality cavort and play across the well-composed pages. A muted palette enhances the humor and invites readers to closely examine the affable pictures... This fresh and festive book encourages not only wordplay but careful examination of illustration sure to please readers of any age."--School Library Journal
