""Interesting perhaps because of the deep-seated feeling of betrayal our hero suffers in the course of things. It's a very childlike understanding of an impossible promise and I like how it's handled."" --Elizabeth Bird, blogs.slj.com ""This sweet, deceptively simple story effectively portrays the cycle of life to young children, likely imparting a sense of hope and wonder."" --Kirkus Reviews
