Praise
Egnéus’s illustrations are lush, and include a variety of perspectives and points of view. . . Combine that with eye-popping spreads festooned with blossoming trees that evoke all the meandering wonder and play this little protagonist desires, and his work here is downright honor worthy. . . . In a world full of hurry up, this title encourages children and their adults to slow down and catch the blossoms.
—School Library Journal (starred review)
Egnéus’s mixed media pictures situate wide-eyed Tisha with her endearing trio of top-knots in an urban setting rich in sensory stimulation . . . Meddour’s message will land squarely on adult readers and child audience: Chill out!
—The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books
The illustrations represent a close-up perspective that depicts Tisha’s world as she herself might see it. The text and title embrace the Japanese practice of hanami, a tradition of taking time to enjoy the tranquility of nature.
—School Library Connection
Charming and vibrant. . . Artful and striking illustrations produce a multitude of visual textures that delineate individual blooms. . . A sweet reminder to pause and ponder life’s everyday wonders.
