Heartfelt and subtle.

Booklist

Larsen's text is full of delights, simple sensory details that capture a mood. ... To these crisply written words, Petricic brings his own rich dimension of narrative and character.

Quill & Quire, Starred Review

The layout of this small, oblong picture book is attractive, and the story is pleasant.

School Library Journal

... cheerily illustrated ... this picture book captures ... the thrill of brotherly camaraderie ...

The Wall Street Journal

The powerful story is made more so by the expressive illustrations of masterful Serbian-Canadian artist Duýan Petricic.
