"A powerful new picture book. Watercolor paintings . . . match the mood and theme." --The Chicago Sun-Times "Words and pictures work perfectly together, making sound from silence and light from darkness." --Booklist, Starred Review "Lewis's watercolors beautifully capture the loving relationship between Granny Judith and Christmas John. . . . Handsome and affecting." --Kirkus Reviews "A rich story for adults and children to share." --School Library Journal "The runaways' success is joyfully triumphant, but perhaps the most moving aspect of the work is Lewis's watercolor paintings, which skillfully manipulate light and shadow to create two parallel worlds." --The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
