Reviewed by Sharon McCue (CM Magazine, May 9, 1997, Vol. 3, No. 18)
'This book has a place in Canadian children's literature because it is a classic - a book whose text and illustrations are timeless; a book that has as much meaning twenty (or fifty) years later as it had on the day it was published.'
