Reviews

"Wiesner offers another exceptional, wordless picture book that finds wild magic in quiet, everyday settings."
-- Booklist (starred review)

"In Wiesner's much-honored style, the paintings are cinematic, coolly restrained and deliberate...An invitation not to be resisted."

-- Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

"Wiesner's detailed watercolors make the absurd wonderfully believable...and children will surely love 'Flotsam' from start to finish."

-- New York Times Book Review, Notable Book

"The meticulous and rich detail of Wiesner's watercolors makes the fantasy involving and convincing."
-- Horn Book Magazine

"Wiesner continues to show children that things aren't always what they seem. Would the Caldecott committee consider a three-peat?"
-- BookPage

"Wiesner returns with his traditional wordless-narrative format for another fantastical outing." -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
