* "An affectionate portrayal of both an intergenerational tradition and a crucial community cornerstone."--Publishers Weekly, STARRED REVIEW "10/7/2024"
Relying on repetition and alliteration, Jones has crafted a bouncy storytime tale and a tribute to the power of community. A read-aloud as sharp and stylish as a fresh cut.--Kirkus "12/1/24"
