Media Reviews
DePaola's well-honed, color drenched artwork...is warmly appealing; a deceptively simple approach underscored by pure craft. -- Booklist, starred review The perennial conflict between Individual and Authority, or between Artist and Society, lies beneath this anecdote, and it's gratifying to see the small non-conformist accommodated. Everyone can enjoy dePaola's gentle autobiographical evocation of a loving family and a happy obsession. -- School Library Journal
