Quotes

"A high-spirited impetus to clap hands—or better yet, someone else's." —Kirkus 

"The pictures offer plenty of room to receive readers’ high-five innovations, and the pages crackle with Salmieri’s neon palette and scratchy, kinetic pencil lines." —Publishers Weekly

"An interesting concept will elicit giggles and enthusiasm from readers, and neon colored pencil illustrations, reminiscent of 80s spandex suits, fill pages with vibrancy and energy." —School Library Journal

"This new offering from the Dragons Love Tacos team is sure to delight audiences—and should make for lively story times." —Booklist
