Industry Reviews
"The text adopts a jazzy inflection, with dialogue that's hipper than hip, but it's the illustrations that really zing. Bright acrylics abandon realism to emphasize rhythm, elongated forms moving sinuously against backgrounds that curve, slant, and boogie-woogie--but almost never sit still."
