From School Library Journal:
Grade 1–3—A mother rabbit gives each of her five sons a daily chore. Readers will understand when George decides to swim, watch TV, and build a fort instead. They may even relate to the bunny when his mother refuses his allowance and assigns him a new job-babysitting. When he is invited to the movies, George promises his brothers that they can come with him if they do his chores. Predictably, this leads to disaster. The story loses credibility when the brother who can dust his room can't dust the living room without destroying it, and so on. The unfortunate hash marks the illustrator uses to represent fur look like razor stubble. "Loudmouth" George is more of a sneak than a loudmouth, and he looks more like an adult than a kid. He also acts like an adult when, after cleaning up after his brothers, he elects to take a nap rather than go to the movies. Responsibility is a hard sell for kids. This book makes it harder.—June Wolfe, Bushnell-Sage Library, Sheffield, MA
