This book stands out among back-to-school titles, as it describes the last days of summer leading to the first day of class. Lyrical prose softly paints a sensory picture of these days. . . This is an ideal transition from one season to next, especially for children just beginning their school years.
—School Library Journal
The sights, sounds, smells, and feel of the season’s end come through on each page of this picture book. Brenner’s lyrical verse follows a soothing pattern. . . While the story might help prepare anxious readers for the new year, it mostly plays up the mood and energy surrounding the wind down of summer, making for a rather original take on the subject. . . . A back-to-school book refreshingly focused on the sensory feel of the familiar season.
