From Booklist
As in Jon Agee's Nothing (2007), consumer trending makes entertaining picture-book material in this humorous offering. Frank and Carl want to sell hats, but no one wants to buy them. Customers are happy—sometimes deliriously so—to spend money on skateboards, grande cups of Mud, and trendy Remote Control Robot Cell Phones. But not hats. As they slash prices, Frank and Carl wonder what they are doing wrong as salesmen. But after a change in the weather, they find themselves with a marketing opportunity that rewards their patience and shifts their inventory. Horowitz's funny, expressive illustrations drive the narrative. Frank, an oversized bear in an undersized bowler, and Carl, a fish sporting a Rollie Fingers mustache, make quite the comic pair and anchor the story of retail tenacity. A peanut gallery of customers, including three blind mice, a well-coiffed ox, and a pointy-headed woodpecker, provide commentary and perspective, as well as laughs. Whether or not they share the characters' entrepreneurial spirit, children will enjoy this offering's silliness, charm, and wisdom. Grades K-2. --Kara Dean
