CRITICS LOVE IT: This award-winning book has received praise from numerous esteemed publications. Highlights include:
"[A] stunning tour de force."—The New York Times
"The pictures have a rich visual texture, vibrant color, and a naive style, which together imply a child as ostensible artist. This effect is well aligned with the playfully inquisitive text, with rhythm and repetition akin to books by Margaret Wise Brown and Ruth Krauss. . . . Have you ever seen a book quite like this? Not likely."—The Horn Book Magazine
