Rating: 5 horseradish sauces out of 5
Review: A visual delight, although the larger-than-life meat made for a challenging puzzle. Eaton’s particular random-cut pieces made the job a bit easier.

Review: Why does it have to taste so bad??

Rating: 4 worms out of 5
Review: I remember being nervous to read this book as a child but then loving it; as an adult, I find it less charming but still a fun read. Don’t love this cover layout though.

Rating: 6 fonts out of 6
Review: Excellent example of the “kitchen sink” approach to graphic design. Not sure which is more delightful: the multiple bold and outlined fonts or the glistening flan.

Rating: 4 guitar licks out of 5
Review: Easy to sort the pieces by color and work in sections. Minus one guitar lick for the unnecessarily large format that led to neck strain.

Rating: 5 crabs out of 5
Review: The saxophones are sized appropriately for the crabs. As a piece of artwork, it really ties the room together.

Rating: 2 ghosts out of 5
Review: So much potential with the sentient doll premise; the potential is wasted here with unnatural dialogue and an unnecessary toy train scene that evoked a stressful episode of “The Littles”.

Rating: 6 kernels out of 6
Review: Looks pretty good for being almost 40 years old. Still functional for popcorn or other small item storage. Secure lid.

Rating: 4 cans out of 5
Review: Tasty and refreshing. Minus one because I had to google what the flavor profile was. Turns out it’s “apple and orange”.

Rating: 3 ghosts out of 5
Review: Cover illustration of the ghost does not match the description in the text; clearly deceptive. Don’t appreciate the many references to the protagonist being “a tub of lard”.
