From School Library Journal
Grade 2-5 Honeycutt's lovable hero, Jonah (The All New Jonah Twist Bradbury, 1986), is back in rare form in this humorous sequel. As the story opens, third-grade Jonah's first ``best-laid plan,'' to convince his mother to let him keep a kitten, runs into difficulties. The kitten does stay, but is accused of devouring Woz, a hamster belonging to Jonah's older brother. When Jonah and Granville plan to be partners for an animal habitat study, they are assigned to work with the bossiest girl in class. When Jonah goes to visit an elderly neighbor, the neighbor is missing. Well-rounded characters and many themes are comfortably woven into the plot. Jonah grows in accepting responsibility. Jonah and Granville discover how lonely Juliet is and learn to respond to her positive points. Jonah and Todd's alternate weekends with their dad are a smooth part of the story, as are the facts that the kids uncover in search of the habitat of the elephant seal. An excellent choice for independent readers, this will also become a favorite read aloud to younger children. Candy Colborn, Cottonwood Creek Elementary School, Englewood, Colo.
