Praise for Let's Get Cracking!
"Marko's debut is a perfectly puntastic page-turner. Hybrids of comics and traditional pictures, the goofy all-color illustrations propel the fast-moving, high-interest story. 'Ham and eggs!' — you don't want to miss this!" — Kirkus Reviews, starred review
"This hilarious kickoff to the Kung Pow Chicken series [is] just the thing for beginning readers." — Publishers Weekly
"Step aside, Captain Underpants! There is a new hero in town — this time, with feathers... Fresh, funny, and packed with full-color illustrations, this new transitional series will be an instant hit with readers looking for silly fun and a touch of mystery." — Booklist
"Frequent poultry plays on words are sure to ellicit giggles from young readers. This [series] will have broad appeal among independent readers who have outgrown easy readers but are not yet ready for books relying more on text than illustration." — School Library Journal
