Praise for Sarabella's Thinking Cap

Praise for Dewey Bob:
"With his tiny, earnest eyes, and huge head, Dewey is downright adorable, and Schachner's skillful layering of watercolor and pencil textures with photo collage gives the story a homespun, scrapbooked feel." --Publishers Weekly

"The mixed-media illustrations fairly glow with endearing whimsy.... This sweet, homespun...story will appeal to Schachner's many Skippyjon Jones fans and will introduce a new character to the canon." --School Library Journal

"The illustrations are captivating...they are a joy to sit and gaze at, making the story so much more enjoyable. All ages can enjoy Dewey Bob, his antics, and his adventure." --School Library Connection

"Schachner's folksy narrative, full of charming couplets in speech bubbles from Dewey, is well matched by her delightfully jumbled collage illustrations, combining snippets of paper and photographs with soft, gentle watercolor figures. Little ones will love poring over Dewey's collections to find treasures, and the heartwarming text...makes for a spirited read-aloud." --Booklist
