Reviews
"Especially notable new book." - Booklist "A thought-provoking exploration of fear, shyness, and the power of communication and connection." -- Booklist "A thought-provoking exploration of fear, shyness, and the power of communication and connection." -- Booklist "Urberuaga's simply drawn illustrations, heavily outlined in black and using a richly saturated palette, perfectly complement the charm and humor of the story....A tale gently told of finding our inner strengths." - Kirkus Reviews "Charming." -- School Library Journal "A funny story about shyness and how to overcome it . All of [NubeOcho's] books promote respectful attitude towards all types of diversity. They are also a playful medium that makes it easier to engage in first experiences and feelings that the little ones may not easily understand. I like that that books offer underlying themes or teachable ideas, especially for little kids that sometimes have a hard time expressing themselves and their feelings." - The Review Wire
