Who Done It?

by Olivier Tallec

Kids' Book of the Week , October 19, 2015

"Who didn't get enough sleep?" "Who ate all the jam?" "Who is in love?" Each page spread in this charmingly horizontal book asks young readers to spot one culprit in a lineup of goofy kid and animal suspects. The answers aren't hard to find, but I expect you'll keep turning the pages again and again to examine all the other oddball individuals, each of which seems to have an unspoken story of his or her (or its) own. (Though I wish the kids pictured, so diverse otherwise, weren't almost uniformly white.) (Ages 2 to 5)
