From School Library Journal
PreSchool-Grade 1?From start to finish, this cumulative tale written in the style of "This Is the House That Jack Built." The story line is simple, presenting first a barn full of sleeping animals and then, as a cat begins to chase a mouse, the unique sound each creature makes as it is startled awake. Small full-color rebus cartoons of the animals accumulate on each page, beginning with the mouse and ending with the 10 featured creatures. Each page of text is faced by a full-page illustration of the action. All of the characters are ping-pong-ball eyed and open mouthed, reflecting the general chaos that develops. When all their noises finally wake the farmer, he tells them to go back to sleep; the last page shows the rambunctious cat about to pounce on an owl and disturb the peace again. The rhyme and rhythm are plain, and the story proceeds a bit too logically, but Arnold's colorful artwork is well defined and comical enough to appeal to young children.?Lee Bock, Brown County Public Libraries, Green Bay, WI

From Booklist
Ages 3-5. Capucilli has adopted the familiar cadence of the cumulative "This Is the House That Jack Built" for her lively barnyard rebus that begins and ends "inside a barn in the country." What fits between the beginning and end is part poetry, part puzzle game, and part tool for learning the sounds animals make. On the left-hand page is the rebus, which gradually integrates the story's animal characters. The right-hand pages feature humorous color illustrations, with a bit more of the verse. There's a lot going on, but the thoughtful design will help children keep everything straight, and Arnold's lively pictures, filled with exaggerated, bug-eyed, cartoonlike characters and melodrama, should make this a childhood favorite.
