\"Barbara Emberley’s text is appropriately folksy and engaging, while Ed Emberley’s iconic woodcuts―using pine that was hand-split by the illustrator himself―in browns and blues stand up to The Horn Book Magazine’s original assessment: “A striking graphic arts achievement” (rev. 22/64).\" ―Horn Book Magazine
