Quotes

"In this aptly illustrated version of a tale that folklorist/storyteller extraordinaire MacDonald has told for years, and even recorded, the title character is a small woman with half-glasses, a tendency toward wide, exuberant gestures and—except for huge woolly red hair, a certain resemblance to the author. ….Crafted from folkloric elements and presented in a mix of bumptious prose and verse, this original story lends itself equally well to reading or telling." ...Kirkus

Kirkus Reviews

"The bright, energetic pictures match the silliness of this tale. ….youngster will happily join in the fun! " ...SLJ 8/1/06

"Margaret Read MacDonald is a gifted librarian storyteller who once again has turned an oral tale into appealing, playful reading fun." ...Children's Literature
