Lovely illustrations submitted by camelsamba on August 18, 2013, 4:04pm The illustrations are full of texture with muted colors, but the story is fairly ho-hum.

Cool illustrations submitted by cbrewster on August 25, 2013, 8:41pm This book is a Caldecott Honor Book because its illustrations are very unique. But I agree, the actual story is really not that great!
