Industry Reviews

"This is laugh-out-loud funny, and just the right ending. VERDICT: With highly comic illustrations, children with good hearts, and a happy ending, this is not just another doll story" - School Library Journal

"Many useful concepts are modeled in this brightly illustrated story, including allowing children to form their own identities and interests, learning to resolve simple conflicts, and admitting to mistakes." - Booklist

Goofy expressions dominate the colored-pencil illustrations of this chipper and encouraging tale. - Foreword Reviews

a sweet and gentle story that highlights the importance allowing children the freedom to select whatever toy they want for playtime, regardless of how the toy is perceived or marketed (ie, a "girl's toy" or a "boy's toy"). - Let's Talk Picture Books

This was really cute! I liked how we see Benji wanting and playing with a doll. And his girl friend plays with his truck. It shows that any child can play with any toy. - NetGalley-Librarian

This is a short book, but it will lend itself to a long productive discussion about what happened. And the emotions in the book. - NetGalley-Educator
