From Publishers Weekly The concept of time and how it seems to lag for a boy awaiting his birthday forms the theme of Clarke's ( Eddie and Teddy ) slight but entertaining tale. Danny can't even remember when he last had a birthday and all the fabulous experiences that go with that special event. He jealously eyes the girl next door， who has "already had six !" Even the cat--comically portrayed curled up in a blanket in front of the TV， remote control in paw--has had 16 birthdays. Mother makes a wall chart to keep track of the passing days; Danny sends out invitations， dreams of presents and has trouble sleeping. The party itself， depicted wordlessly in comic-book form， is a happy climax to the book's somewhat attenuated focus. Brightly hued， frolicsome pictures add to the fun. Ages 4-up.
