Praise for The Worst Teddy Ever:
The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books Blue Ribbon winner
Shortlisted for the 2023 Barnes & Noble Children’s & YA Book Awards
* “Verdad’s debut picture book is an absolute delight.” –BCCB, starred review
“The plot is a fun, reassuring twist on several common themes. Great for bedtime or anytime.” –Kirkus reviews
“The artwork in this debut picture book has that Todd Parr appeal of familiarity and achievability for toddlers and young children…. the message of teddy bears as nighttime protectors will be comforting to many a tiny reader.” –Booklist
“Verdad’s illustrations…have a playful feel that recalls Christian Robinson’s child-centric style…adorable in their simplicity.” –Horn Book
“A warm story for explaining that underlying answers aren’t always obvious, and that readers can’t know what others are going through. Good for read-alouds and SEL shelves.” –School Library Journal
