"Hallensleben composes space like Matisse and loads his brush with paint like Van Gogh...Francophiles and cat fanatics will melt at the immensely satisfying conclusion." --Starred, Publishers Weekly
"Banks and Hallensleben make beautiful books together." --American Bookseller
"Exquisite." --Boxed, Booklist
"With the rich palette and thick brushwork of Rouault or Gaugin, Hallensleben magically captures the light of France and the forthright courage of a small gray cat...Beautifully realized." --Kirkus Reviews
"Hallensleben's drawings, using richly saturated colors, reflect a deeply loving view of France, both countryside and towns, and include landmarks that Francophiles can easily pick out." --The Horn Book
"Rich in theme and evocative in tone, the cat's quest will resonate with young readers." --School Library Journal
"This lonely and determined cat, who puts one in mind of Kipling's solitary cat walking down its allée of trees, is a heroine grown-ups are likely to find especially pleasing...Georg Hallensleben's paintings of her trip have at once a poster-paint Fauve simplicity and a Vuillard-melancholy...plaintive and memorable." --The New York Times Book Review
