"""I adore this book with a completeness I didn't anticipate. I'll be sharing it at every workshop I do, with librarians, educators, teacher-educators... everyone."" -- Dr. Debbie Reese, American Indians in Children's Literature ""An engaging, emotionally resonant picture book."" -- Booklist (starred review) ""Rogers deftly conveys the bittersweet but necessary parting with something that has been a staple of a kid's entire life. Vibrant digital art features characters with oversized heads and huge, welcoming smiles that beam with joy, while warms tones and pastoral scenes provide a gentle sense of comfort and safety. Give this to a kid who has a strong attachment to the family car so they can appreciate the many experiences shared with it."" -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books"
