Praise for Smoot: A Rebellious Shadow
* “Cuevas’ plotline radiates freshness and celebrates the rewards of risk-taking. . . . Not since Peter Pan’s has a shadow commanded such well-deserved attention.” —Kirkus, starred review
* “Just like Smoot and the boy, the text and illustrations of this book fit together seamlessly. . . . Smith’s inky shadows and bright watercolor washes are imbued with lively movement, which perfectly capture Smoot’s boundless energy. Inspiring without being at all sappy, Smoot’s rebellion produces rich results.” —Booklist, starred review
“A delightful read-aloud.” —School Library Journal
“A modern fairy tale (of sorts) that . . . visually shines.” —Horn Book
