—Booklist

Conveying an idyllic but never sugary view of urban life, this gathering not only marks a strong debut for the illustrator, but highlights the timeless quality of so much of Moore’s poetry.
—Kirkus Reviews

These poems speak loudly to children; their simply stated messages spread encouragement to fledgling writers.
