Review
A masterpiece-certainly of children's literature, but maybe of all literature. It is Steig at his absolute best. (Rumaan Alam The New Yorker)
There is no question that Steig's affectionately witty pictures and perfectly complementary narration make this a durable picture book friendship (Kirkus Reviews)
A simple, matter-of-fact story about the friendship between a mouse and a whale. . . . Lovely watercolor pictures and a funny, well-written text which presents its plot coincidences in tongue-in-cheek manner fit together admirably in this faintly Aesopian tale (School Library Journal)
The book is funny and earnest, pellucid and profound (New York Times Book Review)
