Invite an Author to School
Reader’s Favorite Review ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
In Who Made This Mess?, Dayna Ault gives us a story about the importance of patience and listening… I like how the kids come to their pet’s defense and logically point out the benefits of pet ownership. I enjoyed how their angry mom is won over by the dog’s cuteness and sweetness as well as the pledge of the older kids to care for their pet better. The story is told in a lilting rhyme that small children will enjoy. The full-color illustrations…are delightful, capturing the emotions of the characters. This is a fun story, and Ault’s letter to parents about listening is a good reminder to us all.
