★ ”An evocative, heartwarming testament to the power of home and community.” — Kirkus Reviews, starred review
★” It’s a joyful image of a family embracing change that examines “the rhythm of being home.” — Publishers Weekly starred review
★ “[With] lush, detailed illustrations…[the] girl’s imagination is rendered in a vibrant pink hue that is present in one way or another on every page. The family’s ‘new’ home is a place of community and warmth, a place where the ‘rhythm of home’ is palpable. Readers young and old will want to linger with these gorgeous pages, noting the rich textures and details.” — Booklist, starred review
★ “The author beautifully expresses core themes of family and the importance of full self-realization on ancestral land; in doing so, she echoes the oh-so-important rhythms which animate her characters. Goade’s mixed-media art is at once delicate and strong, with spirited, sparkling colors and a keen sense of motion that reinforces the text’s rhythm and energy…an exceptional offering, emphasizing the inherent rhythms and motions of life.” – Shelf Awareness, starred review
