Praise
“This Japanese import employs a unique vertical format that will surprise and delight young readers, and the unusual configuration gives a real sense of Tochi’s ascension, allowing for terrific spreads of uninterrupted 10-story cross sections. Every humorous page bursts with wonderfully specific details that beg for repeat examinations. An incredibly creative chronicle well worth the climb.”—Booklist
“The premise gives artist Iwai plenty of opportunities to tickle readers’ fancy and encourage repeated viewings: the enumerated floors are shown as cutaway-style rooms, each spotlighting details and vignettes that illuminate each species’ particular domestic lives and interior design tastes. Readers should get a good giggle from how the snakes’ house is built for slithering and how the lightly eerie bat house has everything upside down—including the toilet and bathtub.”—Publishers Weekly
“A vertical journey through a well-imagined, wonder-filled world.”—Kirkus Reviews
