Review
"[Puchner's] verbal jesting is infectious; children who enjoy "The ABC of Fabulous Princesses" may find themselves improvising prose poems at the bus stop or the dinner table; it's like a game of I Packed My Grandmother's Trunk -- but with more scope for whimsy and invention. This is not so much a book for lovers of birds, but for lovers of words."- New York Times Book Review
