Praise for Izzy Paints

"The charmingly breezy art depicts Izzy and other figures in thick marker-like lines, giving them a contrasting simplicity to both the complexity of the detailed city in its saturated ’70s colors and the paint-like strokes and splatters of Izzy’s artwork. Izzy’s final piece... underscores the fun of the creative process... and the wry humor playing between text and art is a bonus."  — Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books (starred review)

"Rhythmic, declarative sentences and stripped-down characterizations and settings let the creative process and its rewards shine—and, via the artist’s spattering, splattering hues, bring new meaning to the term 'flying colors.'”  — Publishers Weekly
