Why it's here
A call-and-response adventure story built for reading aloud together — the repeating chant ("we can't go over it, we can't go under it") makes it interactive in a way kids ask to repeat.
Skip it if
It's built around a repeated chant structure — skip if you want a book with more traditional narrative variety.
