Reviews

Looking for a spud-tacular read? Starch here.  — Kirkus Reviews

From the writer and illustrator of The Bad Seed (2017), The Good Egg (2019), and The Cool Bean (2019), this picture book certainly has a point to make, but it does so with disarming wit and abundant charm. — Booklist

[T]his tale is timely and helps make the point that a balance of technology and old-school fun might be the way to go. A goofy story about the dangers of too much of one thing, and a lighthearted lesson for all. — School Library Journal

Text and illustrations are packed with humor. — Horn Book Magazine

A stylish and witty picture book. — Sunday Times (London)
