What The Reviewers Say

Lily Meyer,
NPR
... impressionistic, sweetly illustrated.
Jim Motavalli,
New York Journal of Boos
You’re buying a lot of white space.
Carolyn M. Mulac,
Library Journal
This selection of Byrne’s lyrics accompanied by Kalman’s illustrations captures the spirit of the show. As readers page through the book and savor the words, the pictures fairly leap off the page.
June Sawyers,
Booklist
... like life itself, consists of small moments adding up to a gentle portrait of humanity.
