More actual science information would have been welcome, and a stab at diversity—Eddie is shown as grayish (regrettably the same color as Beatrix’s pet talking pig), compared to Olive’s and Beatrix’s paper-white skin tone—doesn’t really make an impression. This pleasant tale doesn’t stand out.
The book’s visual format is lively, combining spot illustrations with full-page and double-page spreads and dialogue bubbles. Visually lively with an engaging story; here’s hoping the next installment exhibits greater diversity.
