"Keselman takes an imaginative approach to a familiar subject… Marc is an appealing character with dark skin, curly black hair, and large round eyes. The artwork captures the affection he and his mother share and the large compositions are ideal for storytime." - School Library Journal

"Keselman's story, originally published in Spain, is perfectly attuned to the bedtime fears of children, as are Villamuza's moody, soft-toned pastels." - The San Diego Union Tribune

"…A goodnight book offering a reassuring message of love." - Giftware News

"Villamuza’s illustrations use the same tone that Keselman does in the text, bringing a feeling of comfort and sweetness, as well as a playfulness and gentle humor...a gentle, imaginative, and ultimately soothing book, both in the illustrations and text." - Cheryl Rainfield
