Industry Reviews "Robert Roth's imaginative pictures give the book its distinct charm. His delicate, whimsical line, paired with a strong sense of design, subtly describes the various cultures and transforms the staid environment of the stairwell. By deftly shifting scale and changing points of view, he makes the seven-story journey a visual treat." New York Times Book Review - Jon Agee (07/06/1997)
"Roth's watercolors have a light, airy feeling not usually found in picture book about urban apartment dwellers, and his tipsy perspectives lend a whimsy to the compositions that contributes to their effectiveness and appeal. This is going to make those looking for a culturally inclusive readaloud very happy." Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books - Janice M. Del Negro (09/19/1997)
