“A straightforward and comforting exploration of an emergency evacuation.” — Kirkus
“A scary subject is addressed sensitively here and, in the absence of geographic or temporal markers, leaves room for use with other natural disasters or evacuations. Cheerful, textured artwork softens the subject’s intensity and supports the child-centered text, while details such as boxed photos and Malia’s height marked on a doorway prompt thoughtful conversations around material possessions and cherished memories. A gentle story that affirms big feelings and prioritizes relationships.” — Booklist
Owlkids put together this nice video about how the book came together.
