“[A] charming, funny, subversive middle-grade illustrated fantasy.” — Cory Doctorow, New York Times bestselling author, activist, and co-editor of Boing Boing

* ”A joy to read, and we can only hope that Harriet – long may she reign – will return in later installments.” —Booklist, starred review

* “Move over, Babymouse, there’s a new rodent in town!…Vernon has created a spunky heroine readers will cheer for and who will leave them eagerly searching for the happily ever after in the next installment.” —School Library Journal, starred review

* “Harriet is her own hamster, but she takes her place proudly alongside both Danny Dragonbreath and Babymouse. Creatively fresh and feminist, with laughs on every single page.” —Kirkus Reviews, starred review

* “A book with all the makings of a hit. Readers will be laughing themselves silly.”  —Publishers Weekly, starred review

“Middle-graders with a taste for absurdity and snark will find plenty of both here…Fans of Holm’s Babymouse (Babymouse: Queen of the World, BCCB 12/05) series or Vernon’s Dragonbreath (BCCB 9/09) series will definitely want to tag along on Harriet’s future adventures.” —BCCB
