Review
"Great illustration matched with fun rhyming text make for a solid tale of letting go and trying something new", " --School Library Journal
"The jaunty rhyming text and brightly colored illustration show an amusing ensemble of animals and help lighten the message, stating clearly at the end: 'Life can be great when you try something new!' They also cleverly strike a balance between portraying the basis for Kevin's fears and showing how little he needs to fear", " --Booklist
