"To her credit, the question of the narrator’s identity—and reliability—may not come up for readers until book’s end. If they do wonder, the diverting story and illustrations help to keep it a surprise.

"The illustrations in this book are terrific: color-drenched and bold slashes that cover the pages." -- School Library Journal, Starred review
