—Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books (starred review)
Drama and humor are interwoven throughout the well-paced narrative, which transports readers to a distinctive locale and introduces vividly drawn, memorable characters. Small drawings at chapter headings and a double-page map add visual appeal. Norwegian writer Parr, whose Adventures with Waffles (2013) has been translated into many languages, offers another original chapter book with a strong sense of place and international appeal.
—Booklist (starred review)
Imbued with a Scandinavian sensibility, this novel by Parr ( Adventures with Waffles) presents fun alongside concepts such as death, physical distance between friends, and estrangement in an age-appropriate format, and both encourages readers to question new ideas and offers a fertile foundation for imagination. Fans of Pippi Longstocking and the Moomins will delight in Parr’s indomitable Astrid.
—Publishers Weekly
Parr's original Norwegian text, published in 2009, has been compared to Heidi and Pippi Longstocking, and Puzey's translation effortlessly conveys that sense for American readers. The warm tone and endearing characters do most of the heavy lifting here...An excellent translation of a contemporary European classic.
