It is not hard to find that Lisa Yee boycotted a festival at the Amazing World of Dr. Seuss Museum over this image. Quoting https://www.masslive.com/springfield/2021/03/and-to-think-th... :

> Its removal came after authors Mo Willems, Mike Curato and Lisa Yee co-signed a letter calling for its removal. They described the imagery as “a jarring racial stereotype of a Chinese man, who is depicted with chopsticks, a pointed hat, and slanted slit eyes. We find this caricature of ‘the Chinaman’ deeply hurtful, and have concerns about children’s exposure to it.”

The point is that this stereotypical description is negative.
