Jeff Foxworthy, author of Hide!!! (Beaufort Books, ISBN 978-0-8253-0554-2), is on The View today. PW’s review said, “The creators of Silly Street offer a cheerful but slight search-and-find/counting game, which follows a group of bored kids (initially seen gazing listlessly at a Foxworthylike comedian performing on TV) who decide to play hide-and-seek in their neighborhood…. By Where's Waldo? or Walter Wick standards, this doesn't present much of a challenge; it's best suited to kids on the younger edge of the targeted audience.”
