    ★ ”[A] lively picture book….Marvelously textured, dimensional cut-paper, oil pastel, and acrylic artwork clearly delineates the step-by-step of voting in this spot-on depiction of a child’s anxiety and excitement around a crucial process.” —Publishers Weekly, starred review

    “An invaluable addition to any young citizen-in-training’s bookshelf.” —Kirkus Reviews

    “A timely, if earnestly purposeful, overview of a basic civil right, aimed at younger audiences but with some savvy pointers for new Americans of any age.” —School Library Journal

    “[A] relevant and informative story.“ —Booklist
