Reviews
"A rollicking read-aloud, this is a book that begs to be turned into a class play, readers theater, or puppet show."-The Horn Book "Stevens's enchanting, well-imagined, dimensional cartoon-style drawings of the office-supply characters imbue each one with a distinct personality to match their dialogic voices....This book is recommended for any classroom and should find a home in most libraries."-School Library Journal "Will keep kids engaged, while both words and pictures create distinct, hilarious, highly animated characters from everyday objects."-Booklist "The authors work in lots of clever wordplay that will appeal to adult readers....Stevens' delightfully expressive desk supplies were created with paint, ink and plenty of real school supplies. Without a doubt, she has captured their true personalities."-Kirkus Reviews -
