I know I'm not the target audience, but I got bored rather quickly by the repeating themes; a lot of the kids I work with also found it immensely boring after a few too many repetitions (especially in the target audience of 5-12 years old), which is a bit more than should exist even in a children's book.

I also wasn't a fan of the stereotypical art for Asians that was done. One scene is in Japan, and of course it's a little geisha girl? Despite the fact the overwhelming majority of girls in Japan aren't, you know, geisha.
