Críticas:

"Young readers who fell in love with Won Ton in Wardlaw and Yelchin's first book, Won Ton: A Cat Tale Told in Haiku, will enthusiastically welcome this new adventure, and those not yet familiar with the earlier book will likely seek it out." --Booklist

"A satisfying companion to Won Ton's eponymous first outing." --Kirkus Reviews

"In this charming sequel, a new puppy threatens the titular feline's idyllic experience in an enjoyable spin on the "adjusting to new baby" theme." --School Library Journal

"Each haiku is complete in itself, capturing the essence of cat...and together the poems create a whole tale of displacement and eventual mutual understanding." --The Horn Book

"The poetry is concise and witty...technically deft, and age-accessible. Yelchin's graphite-lined gouache art craftily echoes the verse." --The Bulletin

"* Will steal the hearts of readers young and old." --School Library Journal, starred review on Won Ton: A Cat Tale Told in Haiku

"* [A] celebration of the child-pet bond." --Booklist, starred review on Won Ton: A Cat Tale Told in Haiku

Reseña del editor:

Won Ton has a happy life with his Boy, until...

Ears perk. Fur prickles.
Belly low, I creep...peek...FREEZE!
My eyes full of Doom.

A new puppy arrives, and nothing will be the same.
Told entirely in haiku and with plenty of catitude, the story of how Won Ton faces down the enemy is a fresh and funny twist on a familiar rivalry.
