Detailed illustrations in colored-pencil textures bring readers down to size, pulling them into the girl’s pastel-hued, wonder-filled world as it expands, through her bravery, to embrace a life beyond solitude.– “Publishers Weekly”
The joyful pencil illustrations are colored mainly by pleasant yellows and greens, giving a springy exuberance to the shenanigans on display, and the partnership between the protagonist and the cat is all love, fueled by fun. Young listeners will delight in the miniature perspective, while adult readers may feel the bittersweet tug of childhood nostalgia.– “Booklist”
