Delicately detailed artwork in browns and greens expertly generates a storybook feeling of the natural world. . . . A day-in-the-life flow introduces usual activities like sleeping and territory defense with unrhymed yet poetic prose. The effect is endearing, sweet, and approachable. . . . Cheng’s careful yet playful word choices and Duthie’s expert penciled lines and brush strokes will draw in art appreciators, educators, caregivers, and the children they serve.

The visual text draws the readers attention, and the illustrations provide a charmingly attractive background.
