Praise
Kirkus Reviews
"Byron taps into a child's wonder at what adults often perceive as mundane--and suddenly an ordinary car becomes a fascinating mystery to be explored. The neon bright artwork featuring stout-figured people and objects is tailor-made for young audiences. With a dazzling kaleidoscope of energetic hues illuminating the pages, small children will be entranced by this appealing tale." 06/15/2001 New York Times Book Review
"[Barton's] bold, blocky illustrations in primary colors, composed of simple, familiar shapes and set against bright solid backgrounds, somehow unleash inquisitiveness and imagination." - Linnea Lannon 02/10/2002
