Suzi Moore has worked as a teacher's assistant in a variety of settings and is the author of several books for young readers.

Russell Ayto has illustrated more than twenty-five books for children. His quirky, inimitable style has won him several awards, including the Roald Dahl Funny Prize and the Nestlé Children's Book Prize Gold Medal, and he has twice been short-listed for the Kate Greenaway Medal.

—Kirkus Reviews

Readers will be tickled by British author Moore’s heady cocktail of onomatopoeia and rapid-fire rhythms (“There was a bang! and aclang! and a thundering sound./ Then the tumbledown house turned around and around”).

—Publishers Weekly

Be prepared for an active and boisterous read-aloud with animal noises, movement, and a funny twist at the end.
—School Library Journal

Colors pop in the stylized mixedmedia illustrations, which effectively incorporate the story’s text. The book’s rhythm and repetition, along with its many animal sounds, make it an ideal read-aloud.
—Booklist

By the end, readers will be able to join in with the text and add the animal sounds – making the book a humorous participation selection. The simple illustrations are made with mixed media, but the main focus is on the humorous text.
—School Library Connection

A hilarious rhyming story perfectly complemented with very funny illustrations and a surprise ending, “Whoops!” is certain to nudge children toward the “I Love Books and Reading” camp.
