Review Quotes:

"...this title earns its own place on current picture-book shelves." --School Library Journal

"Brooks' watercolor scenes, which ably highlight both adaptation and environment, will perform well for individual readers and small class groups." --BCCB

"Brooks's naturalistic yet affable animals will likely inspire readers to take a closer look at their own feet." --Publishers Weekly

"The simple text, the colorful illustrations, and the guessing game combine to make this an engaging picture book for reading aloud." --Booklist

"The text and concept are refreshingly simple, while still educating and entertaining. The richly colored and realistic watercolor illustrations depict child-friendly beasts without anthropomorphizing them. A gatefold at the conclusion brings all the animals together, and a checkerboard of heads and feet on its flaps is a ready-made matching game....Young animal fans will find much to enjoy and are sure to ask for multiple readings." --Kirkus Reviews
