"The concept of an energetic child tiring out his entire family is not new in picture books, but Ashman and Hughes have created one that is particularly memorable...The pastel palette adds softness to the tale, and a minimal background keeps the focus on this multiracial, intergenerational family whose appeal is universal and warmth apparent." -Booklist starred review
