Delightful.” (The New York Times Book Review) “A refreshing first book, this introduces Turner as an entertaining, original storyteller with something to say.” (ALA Booklist (starred review)) “Turner employs an assortment of folk- and fairy-tale elements with freshness and ease.” (Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books) “Deftly told.
