“Alessandra Requena, the author behind the equally hilarious The Boy Who Cried Poop, has a genuine gift for finding the comedic potential in the way children’s minds actually work – the absolute internal consistency of a logic that makes complete sense from inside it and no sense whatsoever from outside.” -GoodReads
