"Fans of Marcero's previous outings with Llewellyn will thoroughly enjoy this sweet, affirming tale. Her watercolor, pencil, ink, and digital illustrations are bathed in soothing blues, yellows, purples, and greens while using perspective to give the world, both big and small, a sense of profundity from any angle. A gentle look at the importance of always keeping hope alive." --Kirkus Reviews

"The gentle gradation of hues and delicate textures in Marcero's cartoon illustrations serve as approachable scaffolding on which to hang big ideas . . . A story with philosophical subject matter and a nuanced and subdued approach to it." --The Horn Book

"Marcero's spare, eloquent narrative is nicely extended through speech balloons and charming illustrations in sumptuous color, which artfully integrate the friends' activities and wishes--like Veera moongazing through a telescope alongside her jar-shaped dream of rocketing into space.
This third Llewellyn title stands on its own, highlighting how to find reassurance amid life's ups and downs and what imagination and friends can inspire." --Booklist
