5.0 out of 5 stars The cream of the crop
Again terrific illustrations in a children's book. The colors are dynamic and the silliness will grab your attention on every page. The author takes the impossible (only skips a few steps in each process)to make things happen! The ending is a surprise and could only come from Kansas!

3.0 out of 5 stars Eh. A little too much like her other novels
Don't get me wrong, I do like Helen Ketteman. In fact I look specifically for her books from time to time. But this book.....it was a little too much like her others, or if the other is backwards: perhaps they were too much like this one. I felt like I was reading "Luck with Potatoes" all over again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun and amusing, June 16, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Heat Wave (Library Binding)
My four-year-old has requested this for one of his bedtime stories for over one week running. The story itself is a humourous tall tale about a farm in Kansas. The illustrations are hilarious, and the expressions on the characters (including the farm animals) are expressive and funny. A great children's book, but wacky enough to make adults laugh, too.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great introduction "set" for a science class., January 9, 2003
By 
Leslee (Harrison Township, MI) - See all my reviews
Believe it or not, I use this book as a read-aloud for my 8th grade (13 year olds!) science class. I read it to them before beginning a unit on weather. Even this age finds it humorous. Add this to your collection!
