Review quotes

Yan's cartoons have the look of modern animation; rendered in bright blended colors, they are sure to elicit giggles with their portrayals of Daisy's failed attempts to engage her grandfather. . . . Comical and heartwarming, this title should spark discussions of relationships and understanding.— "Kirkus Reviews"
