Malin's superb and ingenious photographs should amuse a broad range of readers. * Kirkus Reviews * In his first book for children, Malin, who specializes in lush travel photography, has created a junior version of a coffee table book. The images, all shot on location at the actual Parker Hotel in Palm Springs, are saturated with color, the pool shimmers under the desert sky, and the lighting gives all the animals an old-school Hollywood glamour. * Publishers Weekly * A fantastical and fun hotel that will capture the attention and interest of young children. This extraordinary vacation destination will spark many return visits. * School Library Journal *
