Alexs brilliantly paced rhyming text really builds up the tension and sense of anticipation as the story races along; combined with Ben Corts splendidly dramatic illustrations with their plethora of amusing details (love those scattering rabbits), this is terrific read aloud book * Red Reading Hub *
