Reviews:
School Library Journal: "...imaginative and humorous...Peter Scolari narrates clearly, providing unique voices for the characters; music and sound effects enrich the telling...A clever retelling for group or individual use."
Booklist: "Hennessy's humorous retelling of the well-known fable, enlivened by Boris Kulikov's illustrations, takes on added energy in this animated adaptation...the smooth narration matches the mood as it changes from boredom to excitement and disappointment."
