Media Reviews
A Caldecott Honor Book
Charlotte Zolotow Award

Bang's evocatively illustrated book suggests no quick fixes; she treats childhood emotions with respect. -- Publisher's Weekly

Excellent. -- School Library Journal

Bang captures the intensity of Sophie's feelings with strong, broadly brushed forms and colors: images of flames and a volcano; blue eyes glaring up from a red background that looks as if it's exploding; then harmonious, leafy greens and browns; and concluding scenes of domestic amity....Sophie finds a way to cope with her anger, quite laudably, without a helping adult hand. -- Kirkus Reviews
