Starred Review, Booklist, September 15, 2007:
"Parents looking for books on sharing will find this an appealing exploration of the subject, teachers seeking picture books set during the Depression will find many details that bring the period to life. A gentle lesson that plays into the spirit of the holiday."
-Carolyn Phelan
Starred Review, Kirkus Reviews, November 1, 2007:

Review, The New York Times Book Review, December 2, 2007:
