Praise
“A touching and atmospheric picture book.”—Wall Street Journal
★ ”By turns verbose and spare, the late Jackson’s text works well with Floca’s illustrations, which are rendered in a soft palette to showcase the natural world’s elegant beauty. . . A powerful celebration of the parent-child bond and the moments that make an impact.”—Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review
★ “The story transcends its setting and, in some sense, it speaks for all children missing a parent who was called away for military service. A heartfelt, timeless picture book.”—Booklist, Starred Review
★ “The effective interplay of text and art makes this slender tale of reminiscence unforgettable.”—The Horn Book, Starred Review
“Closely observed writing brings sensations to life.”—Publisher’s Weekly
“The story is relevant in describing the emotions of a child missing someone any time, for any conflict. . . A perfect text to use for personal narrative units.”—School Library Journal
