The more times you read the book the more you get from it. It really makes you think differently about things and I love that about a book. The descriptions are well detailed so you can paint an amazing picture. (0 more)
There are some racism remarks which I'm guessing at the time was written wasn't "a big deal" but it makes for uncomfortable reading. Also in the follow on books there are a few inconsistencies, but if you can over look doesn't effect the story too much. (0 more)
A thinking book!

Gerald wants to take a nap, and Piggie thinks that sounds like a good idea. But will she keep Gerald from getting his nap?

The pictures and dialogue are fun as always, but I don’t think this book has quite the spark of some of the others in the series. Honestly, that’s a minor issue, however, and fans of these fun picture books will still enjoy it.

I wasn't sure on the book at first but I got into it after a couple of chapters. It's one of those books where you want to tell the character what is really going on as they can't see it/are blind to it. You need to keep reading as you can't wait to see what happens. There are surprises in store especially at the end. All the pieces finally fit together to reveal the full picture.
