Praise
“The off-kilter perspective in the illustrations is enchanting but difficult to describe; if Grandma Moses and Maira Kalman could have a baby, that baby would paint this book. The tone of the story moves flawlessly from genuinely hilarious (the scene where Bailey runs with a metal chair even incorporates sound effects) to bittersweet and mysterious.” —Kirkus Reviews
“VanderPloeg makes a lively picture book debut with fluid digital illustrations that include a double-spread, block-by-block map of the story’s Brooklyn setting; she combines a cosmopolitan aesthetic with a keen reportorial eye, immersing readers in the bustling energy of a close-knit, upscale community.” —Publishers Weekly
“The splendid illustrations capture contemporary Brooklyn, its fashion, and its diversity. There are charming details on every spread, which include examples of motion and onomatopoeia. A fun way to explore the city and a great opportunity for Brooklyn kids to learn street names and addresses in their neighborhood.” —Booklist
