The story has unconstrained imagination and deep implications and is practical to the life of children, presenting a harmonious but bizarre atmosphere. Through this kind of playhouse game, children can experience a true life, enjoy free and naïve mood. The pictures are painted with red, blue and overlaid colors of the two, bursting out an incredible kind of exquisiteness in simpleness.

PreS-Gr. 2. First published in Canada in 1976, Atwood's small, whimsical book has been reprinted for U.S. distribution for the first time. In her author's note, Atwood mentions that she wrote and illustrated the book during a period in which two-color printing was common, and she says that she had hand-lettered the book to save money. The production does appear dated, but that doesn't detract from the appeal. Rendered in shades of red and blue, the fanciful illustrations extend the story of two saucer-eyed boys who live in a tree. The book resembles an easy reader: short sentences composed of basic vocabulary; rhythmic, repetitive phrases to help propel new readers through the story. Spare and simple, this title offers a refreshing return to basics. Gillian Engberg
