Review quotes
Entertaining and instructive, this will be a useful preschool discussion starter. —Booklist, on SONNY SAYS MINE!
Hart's playful, repetitive text winningly recalls Mac Barnett's Jack books. OHora's bright digital art, often presented against monochrome backgrounds and augmented by colorful speech bubbles, keeps the focus on the expressive characters. A solid conversation opener for discussions on sharing and empathy. —Publishers Weekly, on SONNY SAYS MINE!Caryl Hart writes picture books and young fiction and loves walking her dog and sitting in cafes and libraries.
