"STARRED REVIEW! ★ ""Paired with simple text made up of brief 'thank you' sentences, the story unfolds through the elegant, textured images... This is a tale that begs readers to linger and wonder about what it means to be grateful... A limited but vivid palette of primary colors simultaneously soothes with its blues and energizes with its red and yellows, creating an aesthetically pleasing, thought-provoking, and engaging experience. A whimsical, enriching, and deeply rewarding adventure in gratitude."" * Kirkus Reviews * STARRED REVIEW! ★ ""Striking, stylish illustrations distinguish an epic read from creative team Icinori. Crisp-edged, silkscreen-like images in a palette of muted red, faded gold, and deep turquoise give the pages the look of vintage advertisements… The ambitious, world-girdling expedition… recasts exploration in an unexpected language."" * Publishers Weekly *"
