[Aaron Becker's] beautiful, super-detailed artwork is the perfect igniter of class discussion as children are empowered to think and decide where the story might go. […] Becker’s books are a breath of fresh air in a shouty market that is so often overrun with crude digital printouts […] As with the best illustrators, the more you look, the more you see. Another huge achievement. -- Alex O'Connell - The Times

Stunning, thought-provoking wordless picture book. - the Bookseller

I like this book as it is different, it has only pictures. It is nice to spot the tree and river on each page and see how they change when I turn the page. -- Theo age 3 - Kids Book Reviews, Books Up North

This is a book to inspire conversation with young readers. - Books for Keeps

There is so much to admire in this epic picture book which rewards multiple careful re-readings in order to notice more of the details Becker has included. The buildings, vehicles and costumes do not belong to any particular culture and at times take on an otherworldly quality reminiscent of Shaun Tan’s The Arrival. This unfamiliar visual vocabulary gives a universality to Becker’s story. Above all, it is good to read books for younger readers which deal seriously with environmental issues but also convey a hopeful message. - Just Imagine

Aaron Becker has worked as an artist in the film and animation industry, and is the creator of the beautiful wordless picture book, Journey, awarded the Caldecott Honor in 2014, and its follow-up, Quest.
