Hurley's strong sense of design is evident in the digital artwork, which uses flat, subtle colors and simplified forms to create pictures that show up very effectively from a distance. A good choice for group sharing and discussion." --<i>Booklist</i>--Booklist "December 15, 2016"<br><br>"Rich, graphic-style illustrations are the backbone of Hurley's latest title.
