What They're Saying
Critics Review
Praise for Bad Apple“Charming … Social norms force Mac and Will apart; surprisingly effective, fruit-related pathos ensues before the two friends decide to buck convention and like whom they like. Who cares what anyone thinks?“—The New York Times“The story works very nicely as a gentle celebration of friendship.”—Publishers Weekly“Hemingway’s story of friendship against the odds is sweet.“—Kirkus Reviews“Hemingway’s oil illustrations are rich with autumn colors, and clever bits of action and humor conjure up a world children will want to return to. Meanwhile, the message about peer pressure comes through subtly but strongly.“—Booklist
