Readers who will like this: Anyone who loves a fun book with a great message!
Response/Rating (1-4): 4; Like most of Mo Willem's books, I really liked the message in this one. It's a great books to teach students about friendship and the way we treat others.
One question you would ask before a read aloud: How many of you have ever felt left out?
