"Horvath tops even Everything on a Waffle with this hilarious, heartrending tale of two unwanted children left with a pair of eccentric old ladies. . . Once again Horvath displays a genius for creating multigenerational, interestingly extended families, and for blending high and low comedy into a tale rife with important themes and life-changing events." --Starred, Kirkus Reviews
"Readers are in for a wise and wacky ride." --Starred, School Library Journal
"Alternately dark and humorous, Polly Horvath's imagination is always a treat." --The Chicago Tribune
"Unruly, unpredictable and utterly compelling...Readers may find themselves wondering just how far Horvath will go with her uncensored, Mad Hatter humor - and they won't be disappointed with her steering." --Starred, Publishers Weekly
