This amiable and impressive walk for Pinkwater breezily showcases his skill as a comic storyteller and how that skill is a smooth handoff to an illustrator. ... Davis keeps the dry humor right up on the surface, the tone bright-there is a whole lot of beaming on Jacob's part-but not frantic. A very snug collaboration; must have been the homework that tipped it. - Kirkus Reviews
