Emma Reynolds' digital illustrations highlight jungle green predominately, accented with neon purples, oranges, and yellows...compositions are attractively varied, ranging from full-bleed spreads to single-page art and smaller, paneled illustrations. The text's use of terminology borrowed from nature videos (becoming \"aggressive\" and \"natural habitat\") adds to the fun.\" - \u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"A fun story for all the kids who think their teachers live at school, because where else would they live?\" - \u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e* \"Reynolds, award-winning author of \u003ci\u003eCreepy Carrots!\u003c\/i\u003e, has delivered another gem and children will relish Miranda’s outrageous traps and the poor unsuspecting adults who are snared in them.
