Critics Review
“A spider comes to embrace the iterative nature of making in this tightly written story by Wall…Leaning on dusty sages and candy reds, Kang’s digital artwork has paperlike textures, giving scenes an appealing dimensionality as this picture of creaturely creativity delivers winning insight about process.” – Publishers Weekly“Creating something worthwhile takes time, effort, and patience… expressive Kiara is portrayed determinedly pursuing her passion; she’s also an exemplar of self-confident persistence. The colorful digital illustrations are by turns delicate and lively and incorporate examples of creative typesetting; those intricate webs are spectacular.” – Kirkus Reviews
