What They're Saying
Critics Review
A Chicago Public Library Best Book of 2023
“The text demonstrated a range of meanings for ‘sí’ and ‘no’ (the only two words in the book) with black, white, and blood orange images that are jam-packed with friendly skeleton details.”–Horn Book
“An interactive read-aloud story that helps teach children how to build healthy friendships and other life lessons.”–School Library Journal
“Prereaders will have fun interpreting the reason behind each sí and no, and the final pages turn the plot toward the importance of collaboration and friendship–and, of course, a little mischief, too.”–Booklist
* “Good-natured, bustling cartooning reveals lots to laugh about in a friendly concept book that’s overwhelmingly a ‘Sí.’”–Publishers Weekly
* “The sublime, repeated juxtaposition of Sí and No offers wacky, surprising moments of levity, and it all comes together for a charming ending. A spectacular day in Skeletown.”–Kirkus Reviews
