DK Look Out Leonard
Book SynopsisTrade Review"The shrew family is moving across the jungle to their new home. To make sure everyone stays together through treacherous terrain, Mrs. Shrew asks for everyone to hold on to one another’s tails. Six of the shrews comply, except for the distractible Leonard, who grabs a baboon tail instead. As he tries to catch up to the group (who seems oblivious to his disappearance), the small bespectacled shrew blunders from one wrong tail to the next, narrowly avoiding disaster each time. When a scary tiger threatens the shrews, lucky Leonard accidentally saves the day. Finally reunited with his family, Leonard never wants to get lost again, although another mysterious tail beckons. Anegon’s vibrant illustrations delight with cartoonish expressiveness and bouncy energy. The visual humor complements the narrator’s tone that vacillates between calm and concerned, as Leonard’s antics elicit a cautionary “Look out, Leonard!” that the audience will undoubtedly echo. A brief note in the back of the book gives some factual information about the Southeast Asian shrews. VERDICT A silly romp with just enough suspense to be fun for little ones yet surprisingly (and pleasantly) devoid of any specific morals or lessons." - School Library Journal

Book SynopsisTrade Review“In the opening panels of this wordless picture book, an octopus emerges from his home, pulling a small walrus in a red wagon. He climbs up a rope dropped by a hippopotamus fisherman and is caught, and from there his adventures take off in a series of three-to-four boxed illustrations per page. Young children will giggle as he wiggles his way through busy cobblestone streets, evading a hippopotamus city worker’s broom and the clutches of a walrus chef and a rat waiter in a tux. The artist’s signature cartoons are colorful, whimsical, and entertaining. Mayer continues to enchant a new generation of readers.” —School Library Journal
