Though the book is a fun read, I felt my stomach turning at some of the illustrations explaining a foul smell. The author was indeed able to deliver a sense of realism to the story. Nice review!

The book cover will definitely attract kids to read the book. Colorfully illustrated with message on cleanliness in it. Good review.

I actually felt the same way when I read one of OBC reviews on it. It was fun to read eventually. Thanks for your comment
Feeling upset sometimes may be unavoidable, but acting distressed is always optional.

Also, while describing Sigfried’s socks, Foley wrote the names of each pair of socks in the color they were, except for the blue socks, which he wrote in red.
Oops! This is a big mistake in a book that is for kids who may be still learning their colors.
It will help them teach their children about the importance of good hygiene and healthy living.


A vital lesson! Glad this book makes it fun. Thanks for your review.

I'm sure the author didn't take note of that as it was a very slight mistake by him. Thanks for stopping by.
