Selected Reviews:

"[A] most imaginative and unusual read-aloud picture book, with illustrations that are marvelously detailed....The text has a lovely lyric quality, and the psychological implications are sound but are not obtrusive in the story--rather, they give it body."

--Zena Sutherland, Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
