And then there are the descriptions themselves, eloquent in their unfussiness...Schwartz isn't the first to try a compendium of this sort, but she sets a new benchmark."-- "Publishers Weekly" (8/11/2014 12:00:00 AM)<br><br>"It's all very, very sweet, but with the occasional offbeat example that will satisfy out-of-the-box thinkers."-- "The Horn Book Magazine" (11/1/2014 12:00:00 AM)<br><br>"Schwartz's distinctive pictures in brilliant colors would make anyone happy...a magical romp through the senses and delights of being human."-- "Booklist" (10/15/2014 12:00:00 AM)<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Amy Schwartz has written and illustrated a number of classic and award-winning picture books.
