Little Red Chair Reviews
"Just as Hans Christian Andersen brought to life an evergreen tree, the author does a fine job revealing the innermost thoughts of a chair...italicized phrases show the chair's feelings, including exclamations such as "Squeakity-squee!" and "Squeakity-squish...Simple but lyrical prose...A gentle read-aloud or independent read at day's end." ~Kirkus
"THE LITTLE RED CHAIR...features a strong story structure, clever use of alliteration and onomatopoeia that make it a fun read-aloud choice...this book is heartwarming and caring." ~Pat Zietlow Miller, New York Times best-selling picture book author

PEW! Reviews
“The appealing story is both a crash course in cheese making and an entertaining historical account, with lively illustrations wonderfully conveying the action and the hilarity of the developing odor. An entertaining ode to a funny footnote in American history.” —Booklist “This narrative competently imparts the facts and relays the basics of cheesemaking. A slice of history, accurately presented.” —Kirkus
This is a fun story from history with the gross-out factor that is endlessly appealing to kids. Amusing wordplay (‘udderly’, ‘legen-dairy’, ‘cut the cheese’) makes it an entertaining read aloud. Pleasing art accurately shows the homes, transportation vehicles and people of the era. Back matter includes additional information about the event, as well as “Cheesy Facts” and selected sources.
