Reviews

Yoons cute, boldly lined characters and graphic compositions tell the story in a series of spots, full-page images, and thought bubbles. This picture book, like many before it, proves that love comes in many forms. * Booklist on PENGUIN AND PINECONE *
Crisp illustrations that capture a genuinely loving heart . . . a strong if whimsical choice for those separated from loved ones. * Kirkus Reviews on PENGUIN AND PINECONE *
Yoon's story of an unlikely interspecies friendship is both funny and sweet . . . let's hope that, as the Antarctic Ambassador of Friendship, Penguin, too, shall return in more adventures. * Horn Book on PENGUIN ON VACATION *
Readers will respond to this warm tale of finding love. * Kirkus Reviews on PENGUIN IN LOVE *
Bright digital art with bold outlines and succinct narration with some dialogue make this story well suited for reading aloud. * School Library Journal on PENGUIN AND PUMPKIN *
A thoughtful, flawlessly executed exploration of theory of mind and emotional intelligence. -- starred review * Publishers Weekly on FOUND *
