Review:
"Bernatene's cinematic mixed-media illustrations work wicked magic with Emmett's darkly comedic prose, as Bradley's plans backfire explosively. An ideal Christmas present for children who prefer Halloween."
"The cleverly constructed plot unfolds with perfect comedic timing and dry wit, complemented by digitally produced mixed-media illustrations that have a suitably sinister, magnetic charm. Bernatene's artwork uses dark colors, shadows and cinematic perspectives to bring Bradley's world into believable focus."
"This funny, beautifully illustrated story will have you talking about the importance of 'being good for goodness' sake."
"Bernatene's digital mixed-media illustrations are a perfectly creepy fit to this unusual holiday tale...fans of the Addams Family and Emily the Strange shenanigans might appreciate the dark humor."
