“Ponti’s dreamy paintings of towering trees and distant hills are worth lingering over … Fans of immersive fantasy worlds will feel that they have discovered a treasure.”
– Publishers Weekly, Starred Review“Lush and lovely, cuddly and warm, this is one uncanny valley you may never wish to leave … Rendered with magnificent images on every page, Ponti gifts readers with a world unlike any they’ve ever seen before (or are likely to see again).”
– Elizabeth Bird, School Library Journal“A mix of comical vignettes and broad vistas illustrate an account of the lives and misadventures of a clan of tiny Twims…. Action with immersive, full-page or larger land- and seascapes that seem to go on forever while offering multitudinous crags, glades and foreground features to investigate. Like Poochie-Blue, visitors to the valley will be in no hurry to leave.”
— Kirkus Reviews (starred review)“Ponti’s beautiful, intricate illustrations contain strange details hinting at larger stories. The guileless narrative sounds like it came directly from the brain of a child with a vivid imagination, and fanciful kids drawn by the enchanting artwork might find their own imaginations sparked by this odd, playful French import.”
— Sarah Hunter, Booklist
