"What it lacks in subtlety, the warning against violence and guns makes up for in prudence….an uplifting bedtime narrative.” — Kirkus Reviews"This cautionary tale presents the possible repercussions of violence and other forms of mischievous behavior yet also demonstrates how teamwork can help unify and achieve common goals. A good read-aloud and discussion starter for young children.” — School Library Journal“I love that this book addresses a very serious issue without being too preachy….The illustrations are gorgeous and appealing to younger children. Also I feel this would be a great book to share with children and discuss afterwards. Beautifully illustrated picture book that shows the consequences of playing with a gun that children can relate with.” — Kim Baccellia, KidsBooksCentral"Love it!" -- Heidi Shira Tannenbaum, Stories Bookshop & Storytelling Lab, Brooklyn, NY"Lovely." -- Jeri Light, Ronning Branch Library, Sioux Falls, SD
