What They're Saying
Critics Review
“Dullaghan’s acrylic art is adorable, with jungle, snowy, or underwater backgrounds in calming greens and blues while said animals cuddle up together (even the tarantulas are cute with their tiny smiles). The kind, unpretentious moral speaks for itself: “Despite our looks and what we do, we all need love … and I love you!”” –BCCB
“This charming picture book suggests that every living creature, no matter the species, needs to feel accepted. A great addition.” –School Library Journal
