Mr. Kellogg is also the author of Chicken Little, which Booklist said was one of Kellogg's best efforts to date...a winner every child will like, and Aster Aardvark's Alphabet Adventures, which Kirkus said was an ingenious alliterative tour-de-farce, perfect accompaniment to the author's zany illustrations.
