Praise
“[A] spare, barely there picture book by minimalist author-illustrator Goffstein epitomize her trademark approach: a simplicity of text (a sentence, or sentence fragment, per small page) and art (sketch-like black-and-white line drawings) matched with quiet emotional resonance.” —Martha V. Parravano, The Horn Book
“These deft and lovely and authentic and resonant little books of Brooke’s are timely and timeless works. I wish they had been available here in the USA all along. They’re important books, perfectly done.” —Sandra Boynton
“Using poetic tellings accompanied by whimsical pictures, Goffstein reveals basic truths. . . . Each Goffstein book is small and fits comfortably in the hand. . . . Their simplicity is their strength. . . . M. B. Goffstein is one of the finest illustrators/writers of our time. Like porcelain there is more to her work than meets the eye. Beneath the delicacy and fragility is a core of astounding strength.” —The Washington Post
“M. B. Goffstein is one of the few ‘originals’ in children’s literature.” —The New York Times
