Review Quotes: In a firecracker of a story, Meisel, a Geisel Honoree for two other I Like to Read titles, See Me Run (2011) and I See a Cat (2017), provides the kind of repetition, short sentences, and familiar vocabulary that are hallmarks of this series for emergent readers. . . Plenty of action that any child can relate to makes this widely accessible, and a nice "Let's play!" resolution gives a comforting conclusion.
--Booklist (starred review)

Salutary for big kids and encouraging for little ones.
--Kirkus Reviews

The relatable story and structured repetition of both vocabulary and plot elements makes this a solid choice for emerging readers.
--School Library Journal

Meisel packs an impressive amount of activity and emotion into a handful of speech bubbles and images in this enjoyable beginning reader.
--The Horn Book
