Summary of Professional Reviews:

The Horn Book Review points out the interesting illustrations because the illustrations say one thing and the texts says something else.
Review by Ranim Sankari:
This is a marvelous, humorous book that definitely has creativity behind it. The fact that the illustrations are opposite of what the text is saying is what makes it creative, unique, and funny. Students can learn that you should "never take what is not yours" in a more humorous way rather than just telling them. This illustrations are very simple yet delightful.
