Reviews
"[An] engaging and mesmerizing ode to reading...delightful and appealing." -- ALA Booklist (starred review) "A linguistic and visual feast." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "A beautiful book not to be rushed through, but to be enjoyed morsel by tasty morsel." -- School Library Journal (starred review) "[This] love poem to literacy conjures up startling, luscious images...By turns dreamy and ecstatic." -- Publishers Weekly "This is a party for a select (but hopefully large) list of like-minded young literati, who know how to 'squeeze every morsel of each plump line until the last drop of magic drips from the infinite sky' and revel in their fandom." -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books "Readers who will want to head right back to the beginning and soak in this lovingly rendered testimonial more than once...Sweet's distinctive hand-lettered text, which itself becomes another part of the artwork, is a perfect complement to Alexander's prose." -- BookPage (starred review)
