Editorial Reviews

Children's Literature - Sheree Van Vreede
Matthew is worried. Not only did he fall off of the picnic table during his pretend circus performance as Matthew the Magnificent, but also one of the amazing flying squirrels fell out of the tree. He isn't sure if he and the squirrel are going to be all right. That is, until they are both taken to the Midnight Hospital, where the nurses look like birds and form conga lines. There, the Midnight surgeon works on both of them and each is made better. This delightful story takes readers on a journey through Matthew's imagination, as he works through his fear. The illustrations add even more humor to the story, with bright colors and festive characters.
