""Bright digital illustrations, paired with exuberant, onomatopoeia-filled text, depict a loving and tight-knit Black family...Big responsibilities and small gestures paint a thoughtful picture of masculinity.""--Kirkus ""Well paced and engaging for young kids, and the colorful illustrations sensitively portray the characters' emotions through body language and facial expressions. A rewarding picture book."" --Booklist ""Johnson (Twins) and Brown (Bros) encapsulate the tension of being both a young child and an older sibling in this well-intentioned story about family responsibility."" --Publishers Weekly
