From School Library Journal
Kindergarten-Grade 2-- Having lectured hilariously on human children in Earthlets, as Explained by Professor Xargle (Dutton, 1989), the alien professor now turns his five-eyed, green-tentacled self toward our canine friends, who "have buttons for eyes, a sniffer with two holes, and a built-in necktie"--the last used "to lick their underbellies." Xargle further explains how Earthlings care for their Hounds, feeding them "wigglemeat, skeleton biscuits . . . and a sock that is four days old," and spreading "many newspapers on the floor for the Houndlet to read." He then invites his eager students to climb into their schoolkid disguises for a field trip. Ross complements the professor's disquisition with his usual coterie of gleeful, popeyed children and harassed adults, struggling doggedly to cope with their pets' exuberance. Madcap fun. --John Peters, New York Public Library
