"Ceccoli provides gently incandescent acrylic, pencil, and oil pastel illustrations, the clean color and softly dappled light filling the pages. Changing perspectives in the full-page images makes each spread a surprise." -Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

"This story begs to be told aloud." -School Library Journal
