Reviews

"The cartoon artwork is colorful and blithe, with the fabled beings possessing as much personality as the eccentric, brown-skinned, big-hair-don't-care Miss Turie. This exploration of ancient mythical creatures as potential pets satisfies with its double twist ending."--Kirkus Reviews
"Watson's bright, lively illustrations move us right into Keller's delightful story."--Booklist
