“Celebrates an interracial love affair between two women…. Rare and refreshing to see a lesbian couple appear in a picture book outside the context of motherhood.” - Kirkus Reviews "A traditional, magical fairy tale for kids about the power of knowing your own mind. A tale of equality, and above all, a story about love. ...All of [NubeOcho’s] books promote respectful attitude towards all types of diversity. They are also a playful medium that makes it easier to engage in first experiences and feelings that the little ones may not easily understand." - The Review Wire “With the necessary, growing dialogue fueled by We Need Diverse Books focused on the domestic publishing industry, what a relief to know that diversity has international supporters and creators, as well…. succinct, straight-forward writing style is complemented by artist Elena Rendeiro who makes her picture book debut. Her watercolor palette …and fluid, atmospheric style embodies graceful motion. Multiple wordless double-spreads add enhancing details to the story – including landscapes, interiors, backgrounds, all better shown than told….As books hit Stateside shelves this month, [Publisher NubeOcho’s] reception will surely be an interesting journey to watch.” -- Book Dragon Highly recommending. -- Li'l Book Bug Bookstore, Palmdale CA
