Recensione:

"Priest uses deceptively simple shapes and forms in the full-color, airbrushed enamel on clayboard art to keep the focus on the story. The text is well balanced and beautifully written, with playful repetition and alliteration and an economy of style." School Library Journal

"Priest puts an unexpected spin on the pirate tale." --Publishers Weekly Publishers Weekly

"Priest pairs elegantly composed, deceptively simple cartoon illustrations to an unusually rich and satisfying story." Kirkus Reviews
