The one star is for the illustrations, which are not bad. Peterson has no ear for poetry, and there is generally no reason for this book to exist. This is a clunker of a cash grab, a difficult read due entirely to the elementary level of writing. Thankfully it is also extremely quick: you can read the whole thing in minutes, put the book down, and then never make the mistake of buying the fucking thing.
