While I was reading this book, I could not help but laugh. This book brought back many memories from when I was young, getting yelled at by my parents to clean my room and that "Just throwing them in the closet does not mean it is clean!!". I also found the illustrations very intriguing. It is almost as if the randomness and messy lines showcased how messy the room was. This would make a wonderful writing model, as it is a list and uses different sentence structures. I love this book! ( )

This book is really playful and goofy, but it is something that will surely grab children's attention. There is some insanely relatable things for kids to resinate with. It is can work as a sort of motivation for kids to actually way to cleans their room. Books like this make boring activities like cleaning your room exciting. ( )

The illustrations were cute, and I could see where elementary readers could find this funny. ( )

The tongue-in-cheek humor will appeal to elementary students. The pen-and-ink and watercolor illustrations crackle with vitality, but the exuberant cross-hatching may make it hard for larger classes to really see the pictures clearly. ( )

Cute book. It was not at all what I expected. I was browsing ebooks from my library and saw this. I assumed it was geared towards tween, with advice on how to tackle cleaning a room. But it is a picture book, geared towards the early grades and it is FUNNY. Advising kids to shove everything under the bed, in the closet, etc. It reminds me a lot of [b:How to Eat Like a Child: And Other Lessons in Not Being a Grown-up|408106|How to Eat Like a Child And Other Lessons in Not Being a Grown-up|Delia Ephron|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1174500994s/408106.jpg|574141], though that one was geared towards adults! If you have small kids, they will enjoy this, and you will enjoy sharing the story with them. ( )
