Review

"…Neon color-and-line illustrations flow across spreads, engagingly depicting the landscape, people, the cultural milieu…A delightful introduction to the archipelago's rich and varied culture." -- School Library Journal
"The stories are fun and full of action, and the illustrations are bright and colorful. This book is full of eight stories that share a bit about the cultures of Indonesia as well as the life lessons that so many of our own stories share." --Crafty Moms Share blog
"I absolutely love each one of these (and so do the chicks, for all they are 10 & 12 now) and recommend them for bedtime stories, afternoon stories, or really stories any time. The format and length make them great for reading aloud as well as quietly." --The Red Hen Bookshop
