Review quotes

Praise for Mimi and the Cutie Catastrophe:

★ "Mimi is absolutely as cute as the title describes. Grant's illustrations are frothy and perfectly pastel, and her manga-inspired facial expressions communicate as much as her text... Silly, sweet, and peppily paced, Mimi is great for early readers or as a read-aloud." — School Library Journal, starred review

"This adorable graphic novel by Shauna J. Grant is perfect for any little cutie... [Mimi's] newfound self-confidence might be the cutest thing of all." — Entertainment Weekly
