Industry Reviews "The coarse but masterfully controlled line with heavy black outlines contains vigor and exuberance, creating a spontaneous feeling. A keen sense of design uses double spreads and panels to depict the action and Kitten's puzzlement....Simply charming." Kirkus (02/15/2004)
"The narrative and visual pacing will keep children entranced, and the determined young heroine and her comical quest will win them over." Publishers Weekly (02/16/2004)
"The black-and-white illustrations are simple and charming and accompany the words perfectly." New York Times Book Review - Karla Kuskin (05/16/2004)
