Review by Publisher's Weekly Review

Two Times the Fun gathers four previously published stories by popular Ramona author Beverly Cleary: The Real Hole (1960); Two Dog Biscuits (1961); The Growing-Up Feet (1987) and Janet's Thingamajigs (1987). Charming half-tone pen-and-ink-and-watercolor-wash illustrations by Carol Thompson, er, double the pleasure. (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved

Review by Horn Book Review

Four of Cleary's picture books about twins Janet and Jimmy have been re-illustrated and bound together into one chapter book. Cleary's clear grasp of four-year-old humor turns shoe shopping, playing in the yard, and collecting into entertaining adventures. Younger readers, however, aren't going to have much interest in preschool antics. (c) Copyright 2010. The Horn Book, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.
