Review:

"Cronin's beguiling journal entries...are as witty and original as the missives from her popular cows who can type....Inventive and laugh-out-loud funny, this worm's-eye view of the world will be a sure-fire hit." Publishers Weekly

Review:

"Each turn of the page will bring fresh waves of giggles....Readers will come away with the insight that worms may not be so good at...doing the Hokey Pokey, but they do play an important role in taking care of the Earth." Kirkus Reviews
