Review Quotes

"With its clever use of reverse psychology, That's (Not) Mine provides the perfect foundation for a discussion on sharing." --School Library Journal

"The creators of 2015 Geisel Medal winner You Are (Not) Small take on an even more fundamental concept...A simple, direct addition to the 'sharing' shelf." --Kirkus Reviews

"This book is just so much of what you want your young child to read. It's silly, and simple, and wholesome, with characters who are real and flawed and lovable." --Once Upon A Story
