Overview
Gold Medal Winner of the 2022 Key Colors Competition, the biennial national contest for illustrators of children’s books."I loved the lyrical but simple language, which was well-matched to the elegant and representational line drawings, filled with watercolor. This was a delightful celebration of the power and wonder of bikes and the independence they bring, whether they’re used to run errands, meet new friends, deliver packages (here, an elephant!), or fulfill dreams." —Youth Services Book Review
"As the world splinters and divides, perhaps we need to remember what we share, and that beauty brings us closer to the just—whether it be encountering a flower, a late Beethoven quartet, a Raga Darbari, or a children’s book. —The Massachusetts Review
"A delightful blend of whimsy and realism that captures the joy of new bikes, imagination—and where both can take you.” —Booklist
"Beautiful illustrations pair perfectly with simple, succinct text." —Kirkus Reviews
