Review quotes
Praise for Hello, Crabby! (A Crabby Book #1):
Crabby's persistent grumpiness and the patient plankton's exasperation are shown clearly in their expressive eyes and mouths as well as their dialogue. Pages broken into colorful panels and color-coded speech bubbles help beginning readers focus on the words... So silly it's unlikely to make new readers crabby. — Kirkus Reviews
Praise for Let's Play, Crabby! (A Crabby Book #2):
Appropriately repetitive dialogue-only text, uncluttered backgrounds, and a small trim size help new readers make the transition to longer books... Crabby and Plankton's attempts at understanding and friendship provide good examples for beginning readers. — Kirkus Reviews
Praise for Barnacle Is Bored:
This playful book addresses the universal problem of feeling bored while everyone else appears to be having a great time... Barnacle's round eyes and expressive eyebrows create endearing and silly expressions. — School Library Journal
In a mischievous skit of a story, Geisel Award Honoree Fenske (A Pig, a Fox, and a Box) introduces a dyspeptic barnacle for whom the sea grass is always greener-until it isn't... From narration that consists entirely of Barnacle's mopey monologue to a dockside environment defined by creamy blue water, a bit of sand, and a couple planks, Fenske keeps it simple, deploying his closing jokes with confident comic timing. — Publishers Weekly
What better protagonist could there be to illustrate boredom than a sedentary barnacle?... This tale where 'the seaweed is always greener' is an entertaining antidote to boredom. — Booklist
