Oh, No! [Paperback]

This picture book reads like an instant classic.... Oh, yes! ravedKirkus Reviewsin a starred review.

Young children will delight in repeating the refrain OH, NO! as one animal after another falls into a deep, deep hole in this lively read-aloud. This simple and irresistible picture book by hugely popular picture book creators—Candace Fleming and Caldecott medalist Eric Rohmann—feels like a classic-in-the-making. Fans of Rohmann's Caldecott Medal­-winningMy Friend Rabbit,will be thrilled to see a new book created in the same expressive and comical style.School Library JournalBest of Children's Books 2012
