Reviews
"...the artist's distinctive acrylics, the children and grandfather have a curious cuteness reminiscent of vintage Little Golden Book characters. The daring shades of neon pink, green, and yellow practically vibrate on the pages." -Publishers Weekly, starred review
"An intriguing addition to any collection of seek-and-find children's books." -Kirkus
"The book's unusual-for-Christmas bright neon color palette adds an extra visual challenge." -The Horn Book
