An upbeat story about moving to a new house- The hilarious, kid-friendly art is by a Caldecott medalist. Rhyming and alliterative text supports pre-reading skills such as phonemic awareness.

Young readers who enjoy noodlehead stories and playing with language will delight in the goofy rhymes and zany story. . . . Madcap humor at its finest. --Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review Gerstein' s sweet-tempered, sunny view of life shines through this story of a group of creatures who promptly realize that what seems like a chaotic accident is actually the home they' ve been looking for. --Publishers Weekly this title combines rhyming text that encourages identification of words by young readers and invites ' all aboard!' for a thrill ride with a gleeful threesome. --School Library Journal
Mordicai Gerstein (1935-2019) was the author and illustrator of The Man Who Walked Between the Towers, winner of the Caldecott Medal. Four of his books have been named New York Times Best Illustrated Books of the Year. As a child, Gerstein was inspired by reproductions of fine art that his mother cut out of Life magazine and by children' s books from the library- "I looked at Rembrandt and Superman, Matisse and Bugs Bunny, and began to make my own pictures. " After attending Chouinard Art Institute in Los Angeles, he was hired by an animated cartoon studio where he designed characters and thought up ideas for TV commercials. Jeff Mack is the author and illustrator of many books for young readers, including Hush Little Polar Bear, Good News, Bad News, and Clueless McGee. He has also illustrated award winning picture books and chapter books such as Eve Bunting' s Hurry! Hurry! and James Howe' s Bunnicula and Friends. He lives in Western Massachusetts.
