“The wordless ending to this ingenious meditation on thinking independently is funny, joyous, and a complete surprise.” –Horn Book
"The minimalist appearance of the Hueys will make them easy for kids to imitate artistically, and those who can't wait for the Hueys' next outing may want to create their own Huey-themed adventures." —BCCB
