Critical Reviews
"This book celebrates families of all types, starting with the LGBTQ+ and mixed-race family depicted, and it reminds readers that although distance can be difficult at times, love is a powerful emotion that can help you endure any long journey to be reunited with those you cherish--and that oftentimes the journey can be filled with all sorts of wonderful adventures."--Booklist "Armchair travelers, first-time fliers, and airport habitués will buckle up willingly for this vicarious voyage."--Kirkus Reviews
