"This story shows how Really Bird and his friends handle conflict and use problem-solving to resolve their issue in a positive and fair manner. The text and illustrations align beautifully to showcase the animated interaction of the friends. Great for any children's collection." -– School Library Journal"Really's yearning to be first should resonate . . . and Foster's stripped-down but emotionally operatic cartooning tempers with just the right amount of goofiness." – Publishers Weekly of I Really Want to Be First!"This funny, upbeat series opener [featuring] funny, comically exaggerated illustrations. . . . most of the art features brightly colored characters against an uncluttered background, with color-coded speech bubbles of just a few words. A chipper reminder that being a leader is about more than being first–it requires consideration and creative problem-solving." – Kirkus Reviews"Fans of Elephant and Piggie will REALLY love Ziefert's and Foster's new early comic series. Appearing in speech bubbles, Ziefert's lively text is all dialogue making the story easy for kids to access. Foster's bright and energetic illustrations fill the pages and will captivate kids. As a reading specialist, I love that the stores teach and reinforce positive virtues such as friendship, teamwork, sharing, and kindness." –Beagles and Books "Perfect for classroom or daycare reading and learning." –Sincerely Stacie"This series is so well done! The author uses Really Bird and his friends to show real conflicts children have on a day to day basis and how this group of pals works through these situations. Both books present so many wonderful character traits like: compassion, kindness, teamwork etc. As a school counselor, I love the emphasis on being fair and working together towards a solution that will benefit all. I also really value the discussion topics and questions in the back-matter that that can help parents navigate conversations with their children!" – BooksGrowMinds
