Reviews
"Ms. Keane's retro pictures here have wonderful color and ebullience, bringing liveliness even to static scenes (of quiet thought, of patient studio work) and acting as a visual reminder of the exciting potentialities of invention." -The Wall Street Journal

★ "A wonderful picture book about creativity and collaboration." --Kirkus Reviews, starred review

★ "Burke Kunkel renders a genuinely suspenseful and touching account of Schön delicately approaching McCloskey with the idea of memorializing his book's characters." --Publishers Weekly, starred review

"The well-executed, full-page illustrations rendered in a vintage style are perfect for the period they depict." --Booklist

"[Keane's] loose lines and energetic compositions are a good match for the conversational text." --The Horn Book

"A visually appealing and ­well-researched addition to biographical narratives." --School Library Journal
