Kirkus Reviews

Over-the-top goofiness guarantees abundant giggles. 

Booklist

Kochalka's trademark is off-the-wall cartoon humor, and his latest is no exception... the wacky plot and absurd humor echo the imaginative games kids play, and the candy-bright, boldly outlined figures that practically bounce off the page are tailor-made for early-elementary-school comics fans. 

Publisher's Weekly

Younger readers are sure to enjoy Banana Fox's shenanigans.

His comics have been published internationally by nearly everyone from the smallest alternative publishers to some of the largest publishing houses on earth; he's recorded several music albums under the name James Kochalka Superstar (in 2006 his song "Britney's Silver Can" was named one of the 100 greatest songs of the year by Rolling Stone); and he's developed animated cartoons for Nickelodeon and Cartoon Hangover. He is the first official Cartoonist Laureate of the state of Vermont, appointed in 2011. Among his best known works are the Monkey vs Robot series, the beloved children's series Johnny Boo, Dragon Puncher, Glork Patrol, Banana Fox, and his magnum opus, the 14-year span of daily diary comics known as American Elf.
