Here are short selections from each of Andrew's reviews, showing what he looks for in a picture book, at least until he turns seven:
"I really like the part where the grape smells his armpits."Overall, Andrew's opinions put me in mind of something I heard at a conference from reading specialist Tony Stead. The teachers he'd polled thought the most important ingredient in a picture book was a valuable lesson about life. The kids thought the most important ingredient was humor. Their sort of humor.
"This is an outstanding book. The author who made this was wise."
"I liked three of the poems. . . . I liked those because they were short."
"The best part is how the rooster followed him and how he said 'How boring!' I just think that's funny. I don't know the reason, but I just think it's funny."
"This book is amazing because the funny part is the poop, poop, poop."
