Reviews...the author has created a story that explores the emotions of jealousy and feeling left out. . . .Children will be drawn to this story of two friends. A great read aloud, this book will lead to a discussion about how to deal with such feelings in a more positive way.-- "PSLA Teaching and Learning - Literature Review" ...will have young readers in stitches. The illustrations, combining paint, drawings, and ingenious scribbles, make the action pop. Shuttlewood wisely uses silly antics to couch a relevant lesson in how a friend's change in status can spark hard-to-deal-with feelings but be positively addressed.-- "Booklist Online" Young children will enjoy Woody's silly, misguided, and loyal actions. The illustrations are amusing as well as a bit slapstick--a moose standing on two legs with a red cape and red eye mask would make just about anybody smile--and capture the ups and downs of the two friends. An enjoyable story showing the pitfalls of being famous as well as the joys of having a true friend.-- "School Library Journal"
