Julia's house is restless. Julia and her family of lost creatures are ready to move on. But where will they go And how will they get there Don't worry-Julia has a plan for that! Julia always has a plan. But when Julia's plans all fail . . . What's left for her
In Hatke's fantasy universe, something delightfully improbable happens on almost every page... Yet despite the suspense, Hatke's loose line and gentle, candy-box palette suggest that everything will end well.--Publisher's Weekly, starred review
Hatke's characteristically fluid, whimsical art turns elegant here, as dappled textures and soft lines unfurl into full bleed, vibrantly bold spreads, and the scene of the creatures returning to save the day hits just the right note of warmth and wonder.--The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
