New York Times Book Review "In scenes that alternate between sallying forth into the world and returning home for comfort, the writer evokes the strong connection between mother and daughter with wonderfully tactile images....Raul Colons pictures...act in perfect sympathy with the text, echoing its joyous movement so that we feel the figures might leap off the page at any moment." - Angeline Goreau 11/12/1995
Los Angeles Times Book Review "Libba Moore Gray's exuberantly onomatopoeic text dances nimbly past any hint of sentimentality while Raul Colon's exquisitely colored illustrations have the pointillistic look of a Seurat while evoking a Degas' sense of graceful movement." - Michael Car 01/07/1996
