Personal Reaction:
I thought that this book was really cute and really funny and dramatic. I really liked the use of color. For example, when she is so upset that she is giving up the illustrator made everything black and white. The background was black and the girl was white and she had a single white tear running down her face.
Potential problems:
I couldn't find any potential problems.
Recommended to...
I would recommend this book to a child that is upset because he or she cannot find their toy.
