Reviews

Starred Review, The Bulletin, July 2013: ""In addition to being a mesmerizing tale in its own right, the book offers a wide range of possible uses—it’s rich with opportunities for one-on-one seek and find, whether of water or of people, and its immediacy and vividness make it a sneaky alternative for days when weather kills off an actual park visit."" The New York Times Book Review, June 2, 2013: “Jenkins taps out the day’s rhythm in clear, unadorned prose… [with] characters as diverse as their real-life counterparts in Prospect Park.” Starred Review, Booklist, March 15, 2013: “A wonderfully fresh look at a timeless topic.”

Starred Review, Booklist, March 15, 2013: <br> A wonderfully fresh look at a timeless topic.
