Industry Reviews
"Pinkney's scratchboard, here in monochrome, heightens the drama with glints of white gleaming against the darker backgrounds."
Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books - Roger Sutton (02/19/1996)

"The narrative is both dramatic and lyrical....scratchboard illustrations...are vividly delineated by fine white curves and hatch marks on the black background. The effect is quite striking: The pictures look like negatives of etchings. A handsome work."
Phelan
