Booklist review of Arlene Sardine

I just checked Booklist's web site and there is no online version of their review of "Arlene Sardine." I wouldn't feel comfortable about reproducing it here without Booklist's permission, so until they consent to that, I'm afraid you'll have to track down a print version of the Sept 1 issue of Booklist (which should be available at your public library).

There is an online link to the review done by Betsy Hearne in the Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books at: http://edfu.lis.uiuc.edu/puboff/bccb/0998big.html

BCCB has gotten permission to reprint some artwork from the book on their site, so it'll give you a sense of what Raschka's illustrations look like.

Could someone post the Booklist review of Arlene Sardine, or has it already been posted and I missed it? Or, is there an online site similar to the CCBC site? After all this discussion, I can't wait to see this book!

I, too, loved Mysterious Thelonious. Just hearing the title I start
_singing_ it, and if I keep repeating it, pretty soon I'm _dancing_ it. I think I'll try it with my college students tonight as a transition from Mother Goose to poetry.... sound sense and non sense.

I always worried that I wasn't hitting those notes just right, but when I read there were no wrong notes on his piano, his piano "had none, not one" I decided not to worry.
