Mark Sommerset is a writer and part-time sheep interpreter. Rowan Sommerset grew up with lots of pets. Together, Mark and Rowan Sommerset create picture books from their home on Waiheke Island, New Zealand, where they live with their son, Linden.
The Sommersets offer another tale of mischief told mostly in
dialogue bubbles that is sure to make parents groan and …um…wee
ones double over with laughter. Both the earth-toned, cartoon
critters on slightly paler earth-toned solid backgrounds and
precise sense of comedic pacing again bring Willems to mind.
Guaranteed hysterics for readers with strong stomachs.
—Kirkus Reviews
The goofy farm animals are drawn with a certain Boynton-esque
charm...many young audiences will roar with laughter at the
scatological humor.
—School Library Journal
The Sommersets have a rare gift for making flowers of wit grow out
of manure (or, in this case, pee), and youngsters who appreciate
indelicacy will embrace Little Baa Baa and Quirky Turkey as
Elephant and Piggie’s crude cousins.
—Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
