Industry Reviews
"The victory of the underestimated is a popular plot, and here's a kid-pleasing version with some bite to it."
Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books - Deborah Stevenson (03/19/1996)

"...a rollickingly original American trickster tale about an old woman clever enough to get into the best of the worst kind of trouble. David Parkins has provided witty oil paintings and silhouette illustrations that are as delightfully spirited and funny as the story itself."
Los Angeles Times Book Review - Michael Cart

"The motifs are familiar, the execution has life and wit, and the overall effect is captivating."
Hensher
