"A story riding on a Thoreau-vian sensibility with a Zen serenity.
. . . This story is more than just a tale of sticking to your
vision--it's a small world unto itself. A keeper."
--Kirkus, starred review "With spare, gentle text and cozy
ink-and-paint illustrations, this picture book is nostalgic in feel
and has a simple, timeless message about following one's
dreams."
--Booklist "A sweet story about the simple happiness that comes
from staying true to oneself."
--School Library Journal "The gentle, simply worded text and
childlike bear will appeal to fans of Minarik's Little Bear series,
and the short sentences and uncomplicated vocabulary may put this
within range of the easy-reader crowd as well."
--The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books --
