Recenzii
"Loosely tracing the circulation cycle of a library checkout, McCullough sings the praises of books and the magic they make with their “perfect reader” in this inviting tribute. . . Vibrantly saturated colors infuse Holzwarth’s curvaceous artwork, which traces whimsical doodles emanating from the treasured object."
"Children will find much to engage them in the gorgeous gouache and colored pencil illustrations, with dreamy pink and orange trees, yellow houses, and floaty spirals and swirly symbols flowing out of the book indicating the 'magic.' The cast of characters is a lively mix of ethnic backgrounds."
"This timely story for book lovers of all ages captures the spirit of connection between book and reader. . . Graceful illustrations project an atmosphere of positivity."
"In a paean to literature, reading, and choice, a purple book with a yellow star ends up in the hands of different readers. . . Colorful, detailed illustrations show a diverse cast engaging with the book in school, at home, and around nature."
