"Sure to capture children's fancy."--ALA Booklist "The images in this book stick in the mind's eye, and may encourage kids to try out different ideas in their pictures."--Newsday "Foley scores points for unique visual presentation in this sumptuously produced, two-color book...Brassy layers and a sprinkling of stars imply fantastic wealth, leavened with grayscale pixels; the elegant combination of the two basic colors boosts the visual impact exponentially."--Publishers Weekly (starred review)
