PRAISE FOR This Is Sadie:
"This award-winning duo beautifully convey the magic that is to be found in reading or listening to a story....[T]his book is a delight for bedtime as well as an excellent storytime choice paired with Crockett Johnson's Harold and the Purple Crayon and Peter Bently's King Jack and the Dragon...." --Starred Review, School Library Journal
"In Morstad's quietly delightful gouache and watercolor illustrations, black-haired Sadie looks both delicate and strong, pretty and at times androgynous....It's an appealingly rounded glimpse of girlhood that's somehow both timeless and modern." --The New York Times
"As in previous collaborations like When You Were Small and Where You Came From, O'Leary and Morstad put forth a playful, imagination-first portrait of childhood, introducing a girl named Sadie who is equally at home in the expanses of her mind as she is in the outside world." --Publishers WeeklySelected, Buzzfeed's list of 25 Absurdly Delightful Books to Read With Kids, 2015 Most Anticipated: 2015 Kids' Books Spring Preview, 49th Shelf Shortlisted for the Quebec Writers Federation Prize for Children's/YA Literature, 2016 Selected, Eric Carle Museum's Picture Books We Love
