"Children who live in their imaginations, who question and wonder and laugh at private jokes will immediately tune into Van Camp's style, and will delight in his playfulness." —The Second Story Review

"The author engages in a remarkable free flow of musings, questions, and answers. His startling narrative style, lively pace, offbeat sense of humor, and refreshing stance give readers a lot to think about. The result is a direct and highly amusing comparison of the value of dogs and horses…. A stunning piece of work that's sure to spark discussion." —School Library Journal

"This is a buoyant, inspiring book that promises to raise many new—and beautiful—questions among children." —The New Advocate

"A rare and splendidly successful marriage of words and images in a book for children." —Quill & Quire
