Review:
*A sweet and quirky flight of fancy. - Booklist, STARRED REVIEW Nostalgic charm pervades Stead's latest offering . . . The illustrations match the text's nostalgic feel, with a style at turns reminiscent of Brian Wildsmith and Bernard Waber, and yet this book is anything but derivative; it, like all Sebastian sees, is something new. - The Horn Book *Readers who don't mind a slightly open-ended narrative will adore this dreamy, experiential story for its quirky charms . . . Marvelous artwork.- School Library Journal, STARRED REVIEW *Stead does not dissapoint, giving readers another beautifully rendered picture book full of whimsy, heart and delight. - Kirkus Reviews,starred review The low-key story is infused with melancholy... yet offers a degree of comfort as Sebastian and his fellow lonely hearts band together on a journey... -Publishers Weekly --Various
