School Library Journal - 09/01/2011 PreS-Gr 3—In the tradition of Richard Scarry's Busytown, Horvath and Kim have created a word book featuring the Uglyverse. Each spread has bright, labeled cartoon illustrations, and brief paragraphs ask readers to find different things on each page. The scenarios, while full, are not too busy, so the items are easy to find and the labels are easy to read. The scenes are funny, and some jokes are obviously intended for an older audience. At the Farmer's Market, the main character, Babo, says, "I'll have a melted ice, hold the H20." These jokes will be easily passed over by younger children as they are buried within the scenes. The popularity of the toys combined with the fun of a look-and-find word book should make this a popular choice.—Laura Stanfield, Campbell County Public Library, Ft.
