Raves and Reviews
"Children and adults will both appreciate these morsels of masterful ministorytelling."
– Kirkus Reviews
"Each story presents a challenge, the solution for which involves creativity, lateral thinking, and kindness. Because Holly the hedgehog can’t go skating due to a sprained ankle, for example, her friends attach skates to her armchair and push her around the lake. Some of the adventures include such tried-and-true folktale dilemmas as magic power gone awry and a series of ill-advised trades. Part joke, part puzzle, part poem, part koan, these tiny stories are reminiscent, in their quiet humor, of another European import, Coudray’s Benjamin (or Bigby) Bear books..." (STARRED)
– The Horn Book
"Each story is charming, optimistic and shows Boris's unending pluck. These "comic-book-style mini-stories" are charming and funny. Moser's art, which appears to be pen and watercolor, are incredibly sweet, and are all set in the country with lots of other animal friends."
– Youth Services Book Reviews
