Praise for this book

IRA Children's ChoicePennsylvania Young Readers' Choice Award* "Shannon's story is a good poke in the eye of conformity--imaginative, vibrant, and at times good and spooky--and his emphatic, vivid artwork keeps perfect pace with the tale." -- Kirkus Reviews, (starred review)"Shannon's over-the-top art is sensational, an ingenious combination of the concrete and the fantastic..." -- Booklist
