“The humor’s all in Armstrong-Ellis’s illustrations, which depict a rambunctious, multi-ethnic classroom full of kids and their valiant teacher... her kids take every activity...and turn it into happy chaos... Readers will get an enormous kick out of seeing what they do in each busy spread...” Kirkus Reviews

“The kindergarten gang... is back in a hilarious counting book that welcomes spring... Areas of the primary curriculum are presented within the ... entertaining illustrations... The large double-page spreads make this a perfect choice to use with a group...” School Library Journal
