Praise for Umami

Praise for NO FAIR!

"The artwork, a mix of charcoal, crayon, pencil, cut paper, and digital enhancements, creates a welcoming feel that is both modern and classic. . . . Delightful guidance for little ones singing the “That’s not fair!” blues." --Kirkus Reviews

Praise for NO PANTS!

* "A delightful duo in a picture book that will bring laughter to all." —Kirkus Reviews, starred review

"A joyful celebration of eschewing the constraints of clothes." —Bulletin for the Center for Children's Books

  "With escalating levels of comic opposition and impatience, all-dialogue text should make for a boisterous read-aloud . . . Dad eventually wins this funny and realistic skirmish of wills, but via a droll turn, it’s Pablo who triumphs in the war of independence." —Publishers Weekly
