The illustrations are bright, cheerful and fun. The story takes place at night and features the moon in a significant way, which is a personal favourite story element of mine in kids and other types of books.
This is the second book I've read by Jonathan Auxier. This was much more lighthearted than Sweep. As it should be, being a kids book. I have to say it's nice to see an author with range for the fun and the serious. I'd be happy to read on in the series to see what adventure Auggie goes on next.
