"Rich in metaphor without an ounce of heavy-handedness, this
timeless fable should be left out for a little one to come to
and
contemplate on their own, when the need arises."--Booklist, Starred
Review
"A tender, breathtaking picture book that you'll read again and
again."--A Best Children's Books of the Year, The Christian Science
Monitor
"An appealing story about grief and acceptance. Recommended for
public and school libraries as a tool for children who are
experiencing grief. The tone is lighter than in many texts that
deal with loss, and the book lends itself to discussion." --School
Library Journal
"Exhilarating . . . Graceful text and evocative illustrations
combine in this story about the rewards of facing fears and trying
something new."--Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review
