"This tale of a small business succeeding is bolstered by illustrations that use perspective to create an almost 3-D effect that makes the action feel immediate and intimate. Spotlighting the power of community, this sweet (pun intended) story is warm and welcoming." * Kirkus *
"Delving into family history, this bustling metropolitan story highlights many modes of cooperation and love." * Publishers Weekly *
"A stirring tribute to food vendors and working mothers...The bright, luminous art gorgeously depicts the New York City setting, subways, park, and outdoor fun...The joy of community, teamwork, and family exudes from every word and image..." * School Library Journal *
