“Enormously satisfying.”

“Clementine is a true original, an empathetic human being with the observant eye of a real artist and a quirky, matter-of-fact way of expressing herself. Frazee's line drawings are plentiful and just right.”

“Readers of the eponymous first book will be happy to meet the same funny, open-eyed, empathetic girl they loved, now. New readers and listeners will cheer when Clementine discovers her talent and will eagerly await the next book about this 'one of a kind' girl.”

“Recommenders hoping to turn indifferent readers into voracious ones often reach first for solid, funny chapter-book series; this follow-up to Clementine (2006) proves that Pennypacker's deserves a place alongside those by Johanna Hurwitz, Beverly Cleary, and Megan MacDonald. Frazee's polished, warm-spirited line drawings... capture the endearing idiosyncrasies of its heroine, who will equally charm returning readers and those meeting her for the first time.”
