* "This imagination- and description-rich tale is for those
enamored by The Phantom Tollbooth and Alice's Adventures in
Wonderland. It's threaded with laugh-out-loud humor and danger, but
ultimately it's a call for empathy and overcoming adversarial
attitudes, which feels exactly right in these divided
times."--Booklist, STARRED REVIEW
"Charmingly dark and darkly charming, a fairy tale that veers
between the almost familiar and the wildly unexpected, Valente's
story will delight any reader who is both fierce and gentle, wild
and mild, fond of wombats and pangolins and all manner of strange
beasts."--Ursula Vernon, author of Castle Hangnail
"Valente takes us on a wild journey through the absurd, the
mundane, the outlandish, the silly, and the strange, often turning
us on our heads. I loved every speck of it."--Kelly Barnhill,
author of the New York Times bestselling Newbery Medal Winner The
Girl Who Drank the Moon
