Reviews

Starred Review, School Library Journal, September 2011: <br> Karas places likably scruffy-looking children across the spreads and, in sync with the call-outs for Neville, stretches out hand-written versions of the name in various sizes and colors, cleverly capturing the evolving event with wit and energy. Although Juster doesn't reveal who Neville is until the last page, sharp readers will guess his identity early on. Nevertheless, this ingenious foray into breaking into a new neighborhood makes for an amusing and appealing story. <br><br><br> From the Hardcover edition.

Karas' deft mixed-media sketches carry remarkable weight. A harmonious blend of text and illustration, this is a warm, reassuring choice for all children who know the anxieties that come with big life changes. <br><br><br> From the Hardcover edition.
