Reviews

  • “…Much of the understated humor in Pearson's affectionate tale is accomplished through the lively line drawings and watercolor illustrations.”

    - Kirkus

  • "...The watercolor-and-ink art captures both the poignancy of a favored possession getting lost and the humor of the hunt. Every delectably rendered scene is touched with shades of violet, amethyst, grape, lavender, mauve, and plum, allowing the central image to be carried through the book with purple panache."

    - Ilene Cooper, Booklist
