Adults and children appreciate one another as well as the resources
that make their bodies, minds, and spirits grow. . . . The serene,
colorful pictures turn the poetic text into a narrative, as the
characters go home, make food, and come together again in a large
community gathering once all needs are met, because “the only need
left… / …is to share.” The lyrical text is a delight to read aloud,
and the layout invites young readers to participate by guessing the
word to be found on the next page—and, inevitably, memorizing them
after the multiple reads that are bound to happen with this
mesmerizing book. All we need. . . is to read (this book!).
*Kirkus Reviews, starred review*
Humorous... a lighthearted, amusing portrayal of routines.
*Booklist on WHAT GEORGE FORGOT*
Haphazard and silly . . . A clever way to usher kids to the bus
with a smile.
*Kirkus Reviews on WHAT GEORGE FORGOT*
The bright, textured, and expressive illustrations depict a diverse
and multigenerational neighborhood community and beautifully
complement the story.
*School Library Journal on THE MARVELOUS MUSTARD SEED*
Meganck's handsome paintings of diverse characters and present-day
settings may help readers find greater connections to their
messages about value, faithfulness, and appreciation.
