\"Young readers tired of siblings and other family members invading their spaces and searching for respite will identify with Silver\'s longing for privacy and be warmed by the thoughtfulness of his loving family. Intricate colored-pencil drawings...will delight readers and have them returning again and again to search for new details....a gentle journey appropriate for emerging and confident young readers.\"
