""An appealingly immersive storytime experience. An affirming adventure."" — Kirkus Reviews “Oozing cottagecore energy, watercolor and colored-pencil art uses cheerful earth tones to cultivate a lush and lively setting, and the illustrations work with the vivid descriptions to create a kinetic aura. Wen uses amusing alliterative adjectives, resulting in a sing-songy rhythm, and fun onomatopoeias describe the happenings of Pippo’s life and help to transition Pippo from the predictable to the peculiar sounds of his new surroundings. Recommended.”  — Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books ""With jewel-toned, saturated watercolor, and loose, flowing compositions, Wen creates a timeless woodland atmosphere with a gently uncanny edge. Endearing and surprising, Pippo’s story is an early lesson on finding meaning in life’s inevitable, if occasionally eerie, changes.""    — Horn Book Magazine
