Critics Review
Praise for Bernice Gets Carried Away:* “As she did in Extraordinary Jane, [Hannah Harrison] again cleverly juxtaposes an accomplished classical painting style with a contemporary sensibility, and her emotionally astute and elegantly understated story will strike a chord with any social animal.” - Publishers Weekly, starred review“The emotional honesty, simple, understated text, and entertaining visual humor combine to create an appealing take on a problem that occasionally plagues us all, whether child, adult, or grumpy cat.” - Kirkus Reviews “A sweet new book by Hannah E. Harrison whose writing and illustrations are a gift to us all.” - emisourian.com“[Hannah E.] Harrison once again spins a magical tale … the explosion of smiles and bright colors will delight young readers.” - Chicago TribunePraise for Extraordinary Jane:Winner of the 2015 Oklahoma Book Award for Illustration * “ This is an exceptionally polished first book. Harrison’s acrylic paintings, which blend realistic animal portraits with a charmingly old-fashioned circus setting to very funny effect, are the star of the show, but her understated storytelling and pacing are equally on the mark.” - Publishers Weekly, starred review * “A touching, delectably illustrated circus story that applauds the underdog.” - Kirkus Reviews, starred review * “ In a world full of competition for kids to be the fastest, smartest, and best at everything, this story’s message is a worthy one. “ - SLJ, starred review
