The book has been wonderfully illustrated by Gaby Hansen. The colors and art work are cheerful and fun.
Your children will probably enjoy this book more than you. As a children's book I would say the writing is average. The words are great but they don't exactly flow as well as the illustrations. I wouldn't turn anyone away from this book but it sure wouldn't be my first choice and Max is one of my favorite authors.
