Reviews
"The illustrations are bright, simple, and colorful. Young children will love the variety of wild animals and birds. .... provides a perfect opportunity for discussion. VERDICT This is a good option to help young and older children with separation anxiety." -- School Library Journal
"Van Genechten's story of a small child separating from her parent is a welcome relief in the age of helicopter parenting....A good choice to reassure less-assertive children that the world is safe and full of sights to explore solo--or with a friend." -- Kirkus Reviews
