"Success! ... Readers will hope there's more wonder to come." -Publishers Weekly | "An imperfect ride, yet sure to stir the imagination nonetheless." -Kirkus Reviews | "Fans of graphic novels will be impressed by the intricate illustrations in this fantasy." -School Library Journal | "Recommended. ... The wordless picture book and accompanying intriguing illustrations invite readers to use their imaginations, to ponder over the deeper meanings, to see a moral to the story which they can understand. Within their view of the world this story can apply to understanding a concept, making friends, understanding environmental concerns, looking at the needs of animals, the list is endless." -ReadPlus
