"Cabrera once again brings a popular traditional song to the youngest audience . . . Perfect for the lap-sit crowd, and the large, double-page spreads make this a winner for small groups as well."—
Booklist "Cabrera's primitive illustrations are big, bold and brilliant, allowing each action-packed animal to explode across a double-paged spread in riotous colors and abstract shapes that keep pace with the rhythmic lyrics. Guaranteed to get preschoolers (and maybe their sleepy caregivers) moving."—
Kirkus Reviews "Cheerful painterly pictures in a kaleidoscope of colors enhance the jovial mood of the song."—
