Pamment's balance of horizontal and vertical panels and
perspectives fills up the negative space to create a huge, wondrous
world of small creatures overcoming their own challenges. The
blurred foregrounds with layers of clouds, mist, and rain allow the
transparent lighting and lens flares to glimmer on the pages,
contrasting with dark caves and brilliant electrifying blues when
Ember journeys deep into the ocean. Young readers will likely
relate to Ember's experience that the world can feel big and scary,
but with friends from unexpected places, one can navigate through
it all and discover who they want to be. - Bulletin of the Center
for Children's Books (starred review)
For readers who are ready for a breathtaking, emotional, and
heartfelt adventure - School Library Journal (starred review)
An enchanting, absorbing adventure. - Kirkus Reviews
