“An elegant picture book that manages to combine a good story, some natural history and unusual illustrations….A tasty offering, laced with nice surprises.” — Kirkus
“This will be an inspiration for other unusual garden ‘pots,’ and a source for primary science units. It may also spark wonder about the fate of other lost objects.” — Booklist
“As comforting as a serving of warm blueberry cobbler.” –— Publishers Weekly
“Together, the words and the art capture the joyous family outing and the excitement of each animal’s discovery. This book can be used for patterning; repetition; discussion of seasons, plants, and the food chain; and, of course, Alaskan flora and fauna. This delightful, versatile picture book will warm the hearts of readers again and again.” — School Library Journal
