My 6yr old son loves these books by this author. We have every single one. The Bad Seed is his all time favorite book. How ever this one is not my favorite. It’s like all the others with same universal theme in the way it’s written. It’s just lackluster. Feels rushed. I do not, not recommend it but the other books are much better

This is another amazing book to add to the series! I didn’t think it’d be possible to top the good egg, bad seed, or the cool bean, but to my surprise John did it again. This one might even be my favorite! My kids (7,5, &2) loved it! I didn’t realize there are even stickers to decorate your own egg.

Contrary to what someone else reviewed, the book IS a full-length book and does have a plot and message. The “interior artwork” was done by another illustrator but it was based on artwork by Pete Oswald and they clearly state that in the book. There are books illustrated by one illustrator and the jacket might be by another illustrator so I don’t see the big deal. If you’ve read The Good Egg and understand how Shel was, then you would understand the message in this book. Read it yourself and see. And to the reviewer, you are entitled to your own opinion of the book but at least be truthful about its contents.

This is a cute sequel, and fun addition to the series. Just feels like a quick sequel because the story lacks the complex themes of the original. I'd consider this a short story, the book is smaller and doesn't come with a dust jack like the Good Egg. Kids will still like entering this world and seeing what all the eggs (including other Frank) are up to. The stickers are a fun addition, I almost don't want to use them. I just wish this had a little more depth to its story. As always, the illustrations are fantastic!
