"Every full-color spread bursts with abundant nature and stark beauty....[a] stunning visual homage."--Booklist
"Pizzoli's style is defined by a bright palette and crisp geometric forms that combine to create a Mid-century modern aesthetic befitting a story written by Brown, the mid-century master of picture-book texts."--Horn Book Magazine
"The author exposes unspoken depths that make up the parent-child bond, offering nuance and complexity in measured words. Full of simple, curved shapes set in evocative alignments, Pizzoli's illustrations complement the story well.... equal parts wistful and uplifting-a small triumph."--Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
