What reviewers said

The conversation of two egg-shaped characters reinforces for beginning readers the long “oo” sound and several sight words...Preschoolers will enjoy the short rhymes, word repetition, and cartoonlike art. Fun for young noodlers and doodlers.

Kirkus Reviews

Kontis' limited-vocabulary beginning reader does a lot with "oo" words that can be phonetically decoded... it is certainly accessible to emerging readers. Jacques' colorful cartoon artwork features flat, minimalist objects set against simple backgrounds, and a charming poodle sporting an artist's beret. The art also interjects some nuance into the story: while the two large creatures debate noodles, the talented pooch creates an entire portfolio of salable art. A good choice for those who prefer silly stories.

Booklist

A strong addition to public and school early reader collections. The skillful use of sight words and multiple context definitions make this a good choice for easy reader collections everywhere.
